Before anyone flames us, how it is sacrilegious to dismantle and cannibalize an SVT, please understand, I really do like long roofs. And I like shifting gears. Besides, the SVT would cost more to repair, inspect and certify than building an entirely different vehicle. Of course, the extras (headlights, taillights, etc.) will probably put a lie to that conclusion.
If there was any easy and cheap way to install an eighteen speed RoadRanger or Fuller I would have done it long ago. So when this opportunity presented itself, I agreed to go for it. Of course, there is still a little, tiny bit of disagreement between myself (old guy) and my son and his friend insaneaudio, the other half of the team. Stay tuned, we should have some real fun this winter.
Oh, all and any ideas, tips, suggestions (keep them cheap if possible) are appreciated. In turn, I will document every step with photos and notes (minus the expletives) to share on this forum.
