Barra's are pretty thick on the ground here. I don't know if clearance at the front would be an issue, but I guess you could have the chassis constructed to suit. Main reason I ask is I'm planning a build, and I happen to have an '06 farlaine that I could use for drivetrain, seats, brakes and other stuff to reduce the cost. Car has 200K on it but has been in the family since new and never flogged. Makes me wonder - I mean sure, V8's are great but rego is cheaper for a 6 and as you say, Barra's have quite the following. Surely someone has done it....?
