    Err...but they already made a VS ute so you aren't exactly making something unique.

    I believe when people cut up perfectly good cars to make utes they generally use a wagon due to having a similar (same?) floorpan to a ute.

    Just thinking of building something a little different, maybe a 4 seater with a short deck etc, tonner style. I have the engineering skills but just want feedback or pics if anyone has them.

    want something different? remove 2 doors.

    ive only ever seen the beginnings of a 2 door vr/s in a magazine, but never saw the result.

    DUIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I've seen a nissan 300Z turned into a ute... they ruined the car but each to thier own...

    As for a VS, I think there are more 'different' things that you could do other than turn it into a ute

    Two door VS sounds good to me.. but as i said each to their own

    2 door wagon

    the wagon was made into a panelvan with suicide front doors, was full tube chassis with plate floor.
    i helped with the stereo all those years ago when i worked at Hypersound blacktown.
    it started off at summernats as a demo car when in bare metal, then once released, did not win much as it was seen as a factory backed build cancelling out most of the bragging rights, so i heard.

    thats a vk with vs front end on it, the coupe one being built has stretched doors too. really looked in proportion. i think a crewman would be the best bet.
    i been part of a subaru covertable 2door project single seater and a subaru 2 door ut conversions. People say they were stupid ideas but hell we won some trophies in all levels of competition.
