 Put in a kicker3 with the auto and 1.6. Don't even bother with putting the tintop on the kick frame. Too much of a hassle to make it worth it. Besides, why would you want to go independent with a limited coil rear when you have a leaf straight axle setup now?
Modify the sammy with the kick parts, not crossbreed the two. PLEASE??? ;D

Oh, I don't know, if you're not taking it off-road, why don't you put it on a Cadillac frame?

all u can do is take ur sami tub..slam it on ur kick frame and start measuring

see what fits and what doesnt..then plan out ur engine and driveline plan out eveything then make some plans and start welding/cutting/bolting

Bit late to this thread but here is a pic of a tintop on a shortened Track/Kick chassis. The chap that built in sent in some pics to my site. He had it up and running but it obviously still needed a bit of tidying.
