What should I do with my wagon?

[klampy]

Hi guys, i know iv had this in a few different threads, but im trying to make a decision between keeping and stripping/scrapping my wagon.

at the moment its just sitting in my driveway taking up space. it currently has no engine,(old one had a spun bearing ).

i bought it with the intention of being a project but to build as a basic daily/tow vehicle for my VRdrifter.

so im i have three main ideas for it. first one being to just get over it n part it out/ scrap it. make a few dollars n put towards finishing the VR.

second, put together a fresh/stock ecotec for it, mount an M90 on top of the eco plenum, have it out the bonnet, paint it matte black, slam it with steelys, and be done with it. with ratrod style in mind, so front windscreen visor, keep the racks on the roof, keep the stato bonnet, ect.

or third, leave it as is and then when i can afford to, buy a wrecked hsv of some sort n transfer all the good bits over n put a fresh coat of white paint on and return the front end back to SS or calais with some sigs maybe, or VEGTS, or even pentagon rims.

so, im the sort of person who likes to have a bit of an idea, and i like to share my ideas with everyone as you generally help me decide.

so heres how it is at the moment but without the VNscoop as i gave it to my brother.

you wont get much for scrap, trust me i know i scrapd my old wagon and got 80 bucks haha, i say go with number two mate chuck the ecotech, is supercharged or not??

[klampy]

well i spoke to my local recycler n he said id get 150 for it as is if i chuck the dead motor in the back and another one i bought to rebuild, but if i did scrap it id sell the front skirt, headlights, grille, n a few other bits that are worth money, towbar, roof racks, ect.

it wasnt supercharged, its actually a lexcen lol, but iv removed all evidence of that. im favouring the ratrod look, but i really dont know.

iv put this Q in StComms forum as well and on facebook and it would seem the common theme is to part it out. i suppose if in a couple years iv got some spare cash i could buy something thats worthwhile. Id love a VX clubby or even just a VX calais. so on that note, anyone wanna buy anything off it?

put a ford front and rear bar on it, straight 6 ford motor, ford interior and badges make it look fully sick like an xr6

[klampy]

why would i do that?

[FstStig]

oh sorry i forgot to put the /sarcasm at the end of it. Thought you already had the xr6 side skirts, why not go the whole lot? Just remember to lose the badges so it doesn't make it a ford part.

is that anything like putting a hsv kit on a non hsv commodore?

is that anything like putting a hsv kit on a non hsv commodore?

Or a lexcen?

Everyone should know by now that kitting an Exec with a HSV kit adds 200rwkw.

Are those the genuine headlights? They look different to mine?

Dunno, you tell me. You're the expert. Just FYI None of my car's have a gay fiberglass hsv kit on them, they have been all stock and if you are referring to the one in my Display picture, that is of my last VT on the very first day I got it, the next day it had a stock standard Front bar on it.
