I'm looking into my future retirement and what I want as a daily.
Currently my VX SS is running a blown LS1 with built 4l60e.
I'm contemplating using it as a donor for the engine and trans into a 1994-2002 Toyota Hilux.
A little Hilux ute is handy for stuff, and all I need is 2 seats and somewhere for a dog.
I want something different i.e. modified good -standard bad.
It would be along the lines of a mini truch style of build, on bags, and only used for daily duties and cruising.
A supercharged LS1 running the 4l60e slush box into a little ute still ticks all the boxes for something fun, and there are kits out there to make it fit.
Finances and courses of action.
COA 1. Sell VX SS as is, with this weird market I should get between $20-30k, and then find a Hilux to build, a clean old Hilux can be purchased for between $8-10 grand, but, it will though have alot of miles and need every bush, suspension part, engine, transmission and drive train rebuilt, auxiliary bits refreshed/rebuilt
COA 2. Buy a clean old Hilux and use the LS1 with the HTV2300 and 4l60e as doner engine and trans, then sell the VX SS roller.
Anyway, just spit balling
