93 dx hatch...cut down the middle front to back to make it to a wide body convert to about a foot extra. i understand that the in terrior will have to be changed to fit the car most stuff like the dash and head lining ,console will be fiberglass...is it point less or would it a great project?
pro's and con's

just asking

 

we have the frame ready for work... shes preped and set for welding
next week i have a guy coming down to help out with the design. sofar it has only cost me a case of beer and 175 bucks
wheels axle enginge and mounts will arive soon
i have no idea for suspention setups but i have a good idea of what to use
aircondition springs were used in my buddies 76 ford... just though i should as for some thoughts before i get any further

 

sounds like you're already set on it.. if i had a place to host pics i'd photoshop what this would look like. you really gotta see it to understand it.. i guess?? lol whatever

 

Sounds cool to me. I would have just started with a coupe is you want the extra length. The wide body is a great idea though and I'd love to see some pics when its done. Sounds like a lot of work, but can't beat the price.

 

I dont think he wants to make it longer.

Do it!

 

oooh I totally misread that. That seems much more difficult. But hey, wider is better

 

Make the roof lower while you're at it. Mad custom yo!

 

I wouldnt do it.... keep the stock look, but make it looks diff. then eveyrone elses...

 

Well if you do cut it and make it wider, your gonna need to make everything else custom or else nothing will work. The axles won't fit anymore either because the hub/knuckles will be farther apart.

 

i plan on making the car wide maybe a foot or so... plus i might be able to fit the oddessy engine width wise but for the lenth i would hve to play a little. 2002 v6

 

yeah i have all that planned out.. there will be too much customization and a lot of my tool and die skills put into it

 

I dont think this would be something i would ever try man thats going to be a big pita to make sure everything is straight but I guess if you have the time and money?

 

thats madd work yo! dont do it, just buy a Grand Prix ( wider is better)

 

is it going to be a normal driven car or is this just for shows, if its just for shows it would be tight. completely unique thats what will allways win. go for it if you have the patience and money.

 

dont forget to cut the engine down the middle too so you can make it wider too. while your there throw in a couple more pistons.

NEVER GOING TO WORK

 

wtf?????

Or you could swap in a honda element engine with the 4wd tranny and then it would be like a widebody awd civic

A couple more pistons... Hahaha that cracked me up....

If you do decide to go ahead and do this make sure to post pics... Post pics of the whole project as you go....

 

Well just hopefully it doesnt turn out looking like this!!

Thast my CRX parts car it was a bit easier to cut it up and take it to the scrap yard than the whole body was.
