Alright, /o/, i came up with a genius plan.
lincoln mark VIs are cheap everywhere because they look goofy with the long overhangs on a super short wheelbase and such, but they're rear wheel drive and come with the 5 liter V8.
BMW E30s are getting super expensive, and only came with crappy not enough cylinder engines.
what if.....
you shortened the front and rear overhangs. You would basically have an E30 for half the cost.
>>12042812
What if what
We put the M20 into the Lincoln? Genius!
>>12042813
>>12042813
holy fuck that shortened mark vi
it looks like my stunted cousin from fetal alcohol syndrome. thanks for the rolfing meme
Why wouldn't you want a Lincoln to blow doors off BMW's while being twice as long?
>>12042813
>>12042813
...my god
>>12042813
Why not cut a bit more and go full caged buggy?
>>12042812
That's why the mark vii is shorter and has more power...
>>12042998
Because the mark VI is body-on-frame, like a pickup, while the E30 is unibody, like all good cars
>>12042813
Pls do it anon
>>12042812
why shorten it?
why not put 2 5l v8s
>>12043692
Cruella De Vil, your Lincoln has arrived.
>>12043692
> 2 5l V8s
> not 1 10l V8
>>12042813
i would drive that
>>12042969
>>12042940
>>12043692
>>12042812
Except that it's not the overhangs that are wrong it's the front wheel to cowl distance being too short and an oversized greenhouse. Lengthen that distance and shrink the greenhouse and you get...a Mark V!
>>12043796
ok then here you go
>>12043844
could you flip the pasenger cabin so it is facing the other way? 4 wheels up front, the rear axle in back?
>>12043860
I don't think science has gotten us that far yet
You'll have to forgive me, i haven't done this in a few years.
I'm also ridiculously lazy.
>>12043879
hahahahahahahaha that is fucking great
>>12043909
you made that one nuke-car from the 50s, congrats
>>12043909
we have passed the line of no return
but let's keep going and see where we end up
Seriously, how the fuck do American landbarges get away with this much overhang without looking like total jokes? The full size wagons were even worse, they basically dragged half a car behind the rear axle.
>>12042813
Holy shit you might be onto something.
All it would take is a few zip discs in an angle grinder and a few afternoons
>>12043989
Style, baby. Style.
>>12043909
would drive if RR V8
>>12043909
It's a fucking Deora.
Can I play?
>>12044028
Needs a VQ with an upside down diff and cosworth gearbox.
>>12044207
where does the engine goes?
in the back?
>>12044207
Someone send this to FMC
>>12044207
god damnit, i was just working on that.
>>12044245
shh,don't give them any ideas.
>>12044242
behind the front seat under a hump. It's a air cooled flat 12, that's what the vents behind the front wheel are for.
>47% of the Continental Mark VI is overhang

>>12044152
You can play, but you gotta get weird with it
This one's powered by hopes and dreams.
>>12044317
The Lincoln Nomad.
I approve.
>>12043692
>not a v12
Casual
Fuck you, I used to think they look goofy just cause of the dumb oval window back there. Now I can't unsee that overhang
>>12044495
you're welcome friend.
The MK IV/V have long overhangs, but also have longer wheelbases so they look normal
>>12044317
Slap a landau bar on it and you have a hearse.
clownshoe?
