  • Why no PT Cruiser gassers?

    I've always thought the PT Cruiser seemed a natural for a straight tube axle and big honkin motor coming out of the hood?
    Why has this not happened?
    Has anyone seen one rebuilt this way?

        Someone did "build" one

          Here is one with the motor hanging out the back :D I didn't look at the front suspension, it could have been a straight axle.

              As a front driver, PT's present a big challenge for the average car builder.

                Oh, come on! This is supposed to be a hot rodding board, right?
                Why hasn't someone slapped a PT Cruiser body (or replica) on a tube or ladder frame and done the gasser thing?

                Don't whine about front wheel drive - there are ways to change that, don't ya know?
                Makes no difference how it started out stock, does it?
                VW's were rear motored, and yet we have gasser bugs!

                PT's are only slightly bigger than a Zinger, so why didn't someone put one together to make jaws drop?
                Is it too hard, or are we a bunch of pansies?

                      Man, there were no gassers of anything for a long time. Remember the Car Craft A/FX nobody cared about?

                      At least a V-dub was a contemporary automobile, for the time of the style. A PT Cruiser? Nnnn... Then, it's not much fun to build a car that half the people are gonna turn their nose up at. Whether-or-not it could make a cute car.

                        So I guess we're all pansies.

                          Perhaps nobody has because they are stupid, lame, ugly, and a soccer mom conveyance. Why not make a gasser out of a minivan or a neon, same thing.

                            Because they are ugly, hopeless, useless vehicles that have no right to live in any form.

                            That's why.

                              stupid IM240 state inspections
                              GM hired away the chief designer of the pt bruiser loser ...he gave us the HHR
                              I generally just deal in destructed fleet HHR , so my opinion is a bit low , but normal people who own them seem to like them
