Good afternoon folks. Fairly new guy here on the forums, with some experience in fabrication and automotive repair, so I know I can build one of these. My main decision now is which of the three models to actually invest in.
Goal: To have a fairly unique vehicle that is somewhat practical for street use in Northern Ohio. I don't know if anyone here has built a Moab for that purpose, as it seems to be more of an off-road prerunner (a vehicle that's used to scout out the general layout of an off-road race course). The GT-R and SL-C both have been built, but they don't seem to be a winter use vehicle, at least in areas where there would be significant snowfall.
Engine: Most likely an LS or LT (leaning towards the LT4/LT5) no matter which kit.
Transaxle: For the GT-R or SL-C, the logical choice for me is the optional Graziano 6 Speed. Not sure what for the Moab.
Beyond those things, I don't really know what I'd actually end up going with.
