Both are sick but I'd take the woody wagon over the gangster mobile

 

[VenomousDSG]

Terminator powered!

 

[Outlaw]

I'd take the gangster mobile with the termi swap. best of both worlds.

[Chester Copperpot]

honestly... LSx swaps are as played out as small block chevy swaps were 10 years ago nowadays... everything has an lsx in it somewhere... i know they work, but different is cooler to me... and a termi swap in anything is cool as shit

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

I'd rather have the original flathead

 

[Yaj Yak]

flatheads are pretty nifty.

 

[Chester Copperpot]

Termi swaps are badass, I'll give you that.

There was an old Ford that had the same swap in it featured in hot rod a few years back, forget what the car is though. I"ll have to look back and see, it was a very nice car.
