are coupe rolling chassis a rarity?

[matthilaman]

hey guys, ive been having some 2 door envy lately and have been considering swapping most of my sedan over to a coupe rolling chassis. ive been searching for about a week now and havent had any luck. I see many cars being parted out, but no chassis for sale..i must be doing it wrong haha.

anyone have one for sale? mainly looking for one with a pretty straight body.

just testing the waters, but will buy it if a good one comes along.

Straight chassis (2-door and 4-door) are getting scooped up for PRO3 cars. That will be your competition.

I've been getting 4dr envy. I have a pretty well outfitted coupe that I've been thinking about finding someone to maybe trade with. Haven't been in a big hurry but just saw this and thought I'd throw it out there. Shoot me a pm if you're interested.

I've got the same thing, pretty serious sedan envy. My paint on the coupe is pretty worn but the body is in good shape. Just put a crap ton of money into fixing it up but hey anythings possible. PM me maybe we can work something out.

No, they are not hard to find.. If you widen your scope to include 318's.. There are many 2 door 4 cylinder chassis practically GIVEN away. I have a friend who built his PRO3, and picked up a spare, both were FREE because they had been 318 cars.

Good luck to whoever buys that car. I met the 16 year old that owns it...

Buuuuut, back on topic. I went through 3-4 before I decided to use my '87 delphin car for my build. They're out there, just keep an eye out.

[HarukoE30]

Thinking of doing this. Instead of fixing the Delphin, just save for another body and swap.

Sorry Austin & Abe
