you have to modify the sump on the 26, and also i THINK (not 100% sure) you have to modify the firewall to run the twin turbo setup.

VH SL/E, restored to original look and condition, but with a turbocharged injected 355 stroker stuffed under the hood.

te cortina with a 2jz gets my vote

TD with XR6T drivetrain.

VH Charger R/T E49 would be awesome!

If your set on a car on your list then 76/77 LX SS Hatch :icon_supe

This is all sorts of win :)

+ 1 for the LX SS hatch. Awesome car and my favorite classic!

old school english ford, MK1 or 2 escort, MK1 or 2 cortina, anglia, capri....

i'm biased though, my current project is a Mk1 Escort 2dr......

my other [I]kinda[/I] project is a HDT VK SS although this one has stopped having money thrown at it for now due to the escort!! :)

$300 bucks of welding to the sump sorts it. No need to touch firewall if mounted correctly.

If my sig doesn't give it away, I'm for the Datto love. Although, considering the ridiculous 'cult' status, I'd steer clear of 1600's. Personally find them overrated anyway. However, 1200 Coupes are still a thing of beauty, or if you can find one a 200B SSS, just for something different. Not the smoothest of lines, but as you're considering a VL as well, then I'm sure a straighter sort of body shape isn't of great concern to you. Easy cars to work on, parts are still decent prices, occasionally you can even still pick up new components from the older Nissan dealers, and there are many, many engine options viable for them. In my few short years on this earth I've seen everything from rotaries, Sr's, Ca's, Z series and even carby pull through turbo setups on Datsuns, a few from that list even gracing my own garage. Just my worthless, no longer used 2 cents.
