I'm interested in either turning an avalanche/tahoe into an escalade/ext or just puting the denali parts on a new yukon. They make aftermarkrt parts and I've seen a few done in Suthern California that looked like the real deal. Does anyone know a really good source and price for these o.e.m or aftermarket parts? After owning a Diablo replica, I understand the concept of having a replica car that looks real and I like it. This is just another type of replica.-cy |

Check a wrecking yard; the parts are mostly interchangeable. There's a local fellow near me that changed a Chevy pickup truck into the only Cadillac pickup I've ever seen by grafting on the front end of a wrecked Escalade. It looks pretty cool.Your pal, Meat.

Ah ha! Here's a site showing how to do something like what you're thinking about with the older Escalade front clip:http://www.lowridermagazine.com/tech/0206lrm_escalade/ Your pal, Meat.

Thanks Meat, I have a source for the front clip but I need molding, steps, etc. Anyway, I'm really excited to see that 360 coupe on a corvette. Is it a c4 or c5? The new lambo Murci looks good too. My diablo's roofline was so low it felt constricting. I want more of a "daily driver" in the sense of comfort capability. -cy

Hello Cy0811, Have you seen a replica 360 Spyder on a corvette, and have you seen a Murcielago kit (other than the one on Powerhousesports.net./That kit still has question marks according to a reputible kit builder). I am very interested in locating both kits. Thanks

The only 360 I've seen in my area was on a mr2 and looked ok, but not exact. As far as the lambo, I am very anxious to see what powerhousesports.com has in mind. They seem very knowledgeable and fair, and thats hard to find in this type of business. After driving a diablo replica in LA CALIF. for a year I know whay the car can do for you; its pure fun!! -cy
