Just drop an MGB engine into a Datsun 510. Voila, instant Marina.
Well, okay, only sorta. How to build other ersatz LBCs:
Take a 240Z, remove half the bolts on the rear suspension and loosen
the rest, throw away the A/C, block 5th gear with a welder and poke
two holes oil sump with an ice pick. Result: A GT6.
Take a vintage Mustang, tear off the chrome, re-do the interior
in wool and leather and slap a $5000 paint job on it. Result:
Aston Martin Volante.
Take a Herald, put a stage II Spitfire engine in it, then run a monster
truck over the bonnet. Result: Sunbeam Alpine.
Any other ersatz LBC ideas?
