The project has taken a slight redirection in the form of engine choice. I had originally planned on using a Rover 3.5l V8 (Buick engine in the U.S.). I know, not a fancy looking V8 engine by american standards but fairly common over this side of the pond! Anyway, that went out the window and off I went to pick up a new Donor car, a Lexus LS400, 4.0l 32 valve V8!!!

Bought a whole running car in good condition, too good to part out but what the heck. The plan is to use all the luxury mods as possible in the build and not just the engine alone!
