I have a Bradley GT that has been in the family since 1970. It presently has the 2.0 liter Porsche engine. (which is the same as a VW 2.0 liter bus engine)
It is a great car to drive, but needs some serious updates. I wish to find a front end of front wheel drive car. I prefer it to be a 4 cylinder, but something with some zip to it. One main detail that this engine needs to have is where the exhaust comes out. It has to be to the rear of the engine or next to the firewall of the car. Also it needs to have A/C. Since my dad put a hardtop on it, it gets pretty warm in the summer. Not asking to buy from anyone, but to find a make, year, and model. The newer the better. A 6 cylinder would be great, but it would need to be perpendicular to the axle and not parallel like most front wheel drives. The 3.5 from an Intrepid is to wide and the front of the engine would be right behind the front seats.
So if anyone is up on their cars, I'd appreciate the help. Like to get this car back on the road. Lots of fun to drive and gets lots of looks. Sure would be great to use it to go back and forth to the lake........Thanks.......SS
