YB'd a mk2 xr2 and made it 4x4?

Wondered if it was possible as the sierra floorpan is a lot longer than a fezzy mk2 chassis

yes me and my mate built one years ago

did have a 2,8v6 4wd in it but that blew up so stuck the 24v engine in and left it and sold it as an unfinished project, but even with the 2.8 in it still went like shit of a shovel, no wheelspin just gripped and went, though weird going sideways in a car that small lol

this is it when he started to fit the 24v but gave up due to so much more to be doing, so it got left in the corner









only pics i have i dont have anymore im afraid, buts it wasnt hard to do, if you know a good fabricator lol
