V8 LS HHR Found

Some of you may have seen this but to me it is new
When my warrentee is up this gives me a whole new direction for my HHR
I wont be spending my hard earned money on trinkets and lame mods
now that I know a LS will fit into my HHR LOL.

I've seen it many times before. I bet it's a wild ride. I'd love to see the chassis to see how every is ran.

Looks like that article is around 3yrs old. I think that vehicle has been sold and dismantled. Someone correct me if Im wrong, I hope I am.

I did not know it was lost?

GM has some companies build HHR's a few years back and Year One did this one. THey sold these off last year or two and they are still around. I think there is Another V8 one around too.

It is pretty much just HHR in body as the drive train is all custom built. To do one right it would take some money to do.

Knowing how tight things are with the stock 4 cylinder, its hard to imagine stuffing a V8 in that space. It looks to be longitudinally mounted. Anyone know, is it? If so it must be RWD, or I would think so. Anyone??????
