So for a few weeks now I have been debating over my next build. I knew I wanted to build another lsx motor (have a lq9 on a stand in my garage). Was very torn to go 1000+ whp and awd in my 78 rabbit or build a mean RWD v8 rabbit pick up. Well after talking to a few friends while working on their cars I noticed a chevy luv frame out of the corner of my eye. Took some measurements and well it would look great under a rabbit pick up body! While researching 70 chevy luvs I found this site. Figured I would sign up and start the project for sure.

Basically my idea is simple. Chevy luv frame with coil over front and 4 link rear. Put a LSX swap and boost on it. Find a rotten rabbit pick up shell cut it up and put it on luv frame. Then do alot of burn outs!

In case your wondering Im very use to custom work and building not bolt on cars lol. Currently I have a 2.1BT 78 rabbit, and a 80 Rabbit sport truck with VR6 turbo, bagged and 4 link rear. Here are a couple pictures of the rabbit pick up.
