SD33 AND TRANNY TO GQ BODY AND CHASSIS... thoughts please.

Hello guys,

A while back I explain that I was doing an odd and wear conversion and due to the lack of funds this is what I decided to do, until a miracle happens and finally realize my dream of putting something bigger in it or the original power plant.

Please disregard the backward drive shaft, solid cross-member and other details that will be fixed along the way but what I WOULD LIKE THE MOST FROM ANY OF YOU GUYS IS TO LOOK AT THIS AND HIT ME WITH YOUR BEST SHOT.......how bad does it looks? will it work?....... ??????????

Believe me this is what I could afford right now so please don´t ask.... why didn´t I go with an SD33T or the original or anything else.

Ahh of course the main reason being the misaligned rear drive shaft.... how bad does it looks??

do you have the rear diff from the ute the engine came from
it will have a off set diff centre

Doesn't look too bad from here, as long as the shaft clears the floor,
The ute diff will have drum brakes, but can be converted.
Anything is possible.
Cheers, the ferret.
