im wanting to make a hot rod of a different breed.(long term project) i thought a good place to start would be with a turbo diesel motor, and what would be a more classy ride than a 50's coupe? (plus no emissions) but im still rolling it over and wanted some opinions. the body of the 52 chevy coupe has good lines and an engine compartment looks as though it might house a cummins(90's) very well. the wheel base looks ideal and the interior would be sweet.
