    i just couldnt drive that after seeing how much has been cut away.

    how it was passed i dont know.

    the engine would probably end up on the back seat in a crash.

    What are you people talking about?!?!?!

    The chassis wont bend, the engine isn't that heavy and its not that torquey. I remember only trimming was needed to get the pulleys to clear drivers side arches.

    I looked at it September gone, there was more than trimming involved.

    There was a topic in Punto Chat showing the pictures as well.
