So I have this 97 GTB "conversion"...basically a 97 GT unibody and door shells with a complete GTB swap (sub frames, drivetrain, interior, power folding mirrors, auto AC, ect and everything works)


Its pretty stock, just an axleback, intake, coils, and wheels...I recently picked up a pretty rare Inspection spoiler, in the middle of painting and mounting it now

Few pics

Were you at WBM?
Also, does your screen name, 'Hosmer,' have anything to do with the soda company?

wasn't at wbm

no relation to the soda company....but I have one of their tshirts (its my last name)

the Legacy is the only conversion I've owned...the others were as they came off the assembly line and titled as such

I live a mile from their store, maybe a mile and a half from the bottling plant.
Hell, I ought to bring a case or two to the Rhode Island meet.

Wait.. no really, I have seen this car.. I think it was recently for sale... Did you just buy it? Looks like the ECS decals have been removed..

Unless there is another fully done GT-B swap in into a white BK with the same steering wheel and stereo... also in Massachusetts

EDIT: Nevermind.. I found the for sale thread, and it lists the car as sold. I guess you must be the new owner! :)

Did they ever sort out the HVAC controls? I remember when we had our dyno meet, that car was there. They had issues with the digital HVAC working properly. Cool car either way.

The car was originally LHD and you did swap to RHD?
