    71T Semi-Lightweight Build

    So, this 71T has been in the family for many years. It spent the last decade or so parked under a houseboat. We almost just cut it up and threw it away 15 years ago but as you know times have changed. As I was stripping it down a few months ago I found it to be in much better condition than I thought. So, what the hell I guess I'll build another one! I'm going for a narrow body semi-lightweight sporty look. The parcel shelf, seat backs, floors and front pan need to be replaced. The good is everything else and it's very straight and never been in an accident. The car is original Light Ivory so it will stay that way. Non sunroof coupe. I'll use many S parts as the suspension, brakes etc. All those pieces are already finished. I'll build a 2.7 high compression MFI engine. 901 gear box with some short gears. You get the idea. I didn't blast the floors as they are being replaced anyway. Here we go.
