I have a strange affinity for malaise era cars. So, I think it would be awesome to drop a 1975-76 Cougar on a 2003+ p71 with a 7.3 Godzilla swap. Just imagine be able to cruise down the highway in velour comfort in your 70's sporty restomod luxo-barge.

Sure enough, an LS into the front of a Corvair is doable....with a little work.

I was thinking more of a sleeper vibe, just cut out enough of the frunk sheetmetal to get the V8 to fit, use a Corvette transaxle at the rear, stock interior, try to keep the wheels inside the stock fenders, but if flares are needed, flare the entire fender out, keep the body lines as stock as possible. But hey, they way they did works too.
