Chassis for an F6B
Posted: Sat May 31, 2014 1:41 pm
So, I've made the seemingly classic mistake of assuming that the Australian Suzuki Alto are just locally delivered Cervos, rather than the Marunti oddities that they are. However, the mistake goes further.
I have just purchased and organized a Cervo Mode half-cut to be delivered locally, fitted with an F6B and manual (FWD) transmission. Now that I've realized that the Australian Alto's and Wagon R's run a G-Series(?) engine, I'm wondering what I might be able to use the half-cut for to make the hassle and costs of importing worthwhile.
I would have loved to get a Cervo or bug-eye Alto chassis as my first preference, so if anyone has one lying around I'm happy to pay a fair bit of coin to buy my way out of this problem, otherwise I've heard that I might be able to drop the engine into a Daewoo Matiz?
Basically, I'm asking what I can drop the motor into without mucking around with custom engine mounts or drive-shafts. Are there any other options I'm not aware of?
Cheers guys,
Lachlan
