I have not seen this done yet, so the project began by locating a nice rust free 1967 Alpine with both hardtop and convertible top. One week later and a wrecked 2003 Honda S2000 was found locally. Before getting the Honda, the plan was to correctly install a 340 Dodge engine (Stroked to 416) with aluminum heads, intake, bell housing, transmission to make it as light as possible. When I found the Honda at a good price, it was too hard to pass up. The Honda has been here almost a week and has been stripped of everything except the front and rear sub frames, engine and transmission. It had been damaged on the left rear quarter and the suspension that was damaged was repaired by the seller!
I will take the driveshaft out tomorrow so the engine and transmission can be removed. Then the front and rear sub frame assemblies will be removed so I can scrap the body. The most difficult and time consuming part has to be the wiring removal, the factory tied every bundle nearly every 6-12 inches.
Also if you know of someone that has already done this swap, please let me know. Will post pics as things progress.
I also created a web page to post the project and pics.
