More Nutty projects[Convertible '87 5000CS QT]

[Ben Swann]

I have one I have not told my wife about yet.  I am contemplating turning the rear portion of the '87 pearl avant and making a trailer out of it.  It would be towed by the '88 pearl avant that is getting the engine that was in the '87 before someone cut directly in front one fine day.

I'd need to find out where to cut off the car, but I think I can leave in everything firewall on back and use the front rails as the tow bracket.

Would be cool to see the avant train, fully loaded with 11 or more passengers.

[So I have officaly loast my mind as my GF puts it. Plan is to get the old parts car, no heater, not runnin, leaking somewhere in the back no turbo 87 5000csqt running somehow, then weld the doors shut and cut the top off. Any BTDTs???? The bright side of things is that I wont have to worry about fixing that drivers side door handle.

On the slightly more serious side, I want to get the engine running first. I have recently donated the turbo from that car to my 89 200. So how can I get the car running without a turbo???

Happy April 1st but I'm not joking.
