Thanks DJ. I ended up buying a 2005 futura (got it for 1k but has a trans issue). I have managed to remove everything but the air con. Im starting to realise how big the project really is.......

Thanks Gaz :) The xr6 are so expensive at the moment.....

Hey All, Firstly, im a noob to this community and forums in general. I promise I’ve looked through the forums but I can’t find the answers I’m looking for. So sorry in advance if it’s a repost of an old question. I want to make a custom tube chassis with a Barra (something simple like a custom clubman). Since this is a ridiculous project that I might never complete I’m trying to do it in stages, so I can always cut my losses. So, if I buy a base line falcon (BA/BF xt) for donor parts, and successfully make the tube chassis with the cradles/running gear attached. Is it simple to come back at a later stage and “bolt off” the XT running gear and “bolt on” the xr6/xr6t running gear? Or would you recommend at least getting an xr6 as a donor? This is just for running gear, I understand there is a whole lot of wiring and tubing that is different across the 3 vehicles. And additional parts of turbo engine (turbo, intercooler etc). I’m just considering the basic gear at this point. Regards, paul
