So i've been working on this swap for a while, and lurking on these boards. It's time to show you guys what i've been working on.

Here's what i started with, a 1958 triumph wagon that my dad gave me when he left the country.

Shortly after my dad gave me the car and retired out of the country, he was diagnosed with cancer. So i decided to pour my money into his unfinished project and take it to a whole new level. The original plan was to give him one last ride in it (it has a lot of sentimental value to him as well, as he got it from a long time friend who passed away) but circumstances won't allow for that anymore. I quickly sourced an LS2 (from a member on here who turned out to be a total douche bag, you can find the threads if you look up Craig Payne), t56, and a plethora of other parts. Since I suck ass at welding, i handed the project over to my buddy Dan at DGR Fabrication who began fabbing the tube frame:
