i heard dodge was just supposed to sell a SRT4 shell for racing purposes but i dont know if its true. maybe a good idea would be to buy a wreaked 2gn with a little front end damage.

ok cause if I have seen right a 2g is easier to make a SRT-4 style engine work in, am I right?

i think either is gonna take some work....probably 2 gen easier b/c that's what it came from...but look how many 1st genners use the stratus motor....i mean you could always go that root....pick up a strautus motor and build it up and use the stock srt turbo set up and run it on your first gen or buy a first gen shell or sec gen blah blah blah lol....

either way it's gonna take some moeny and time

Buy knoxville r/t's red r/t....its got a little damage, but what 'shell' doenst?

I guess thats not true...I almost bought this 99 Ek shell last fall for $500, w/ no exterior damage,but it needed EVERYTHING...bumpers, headlights, sideskirts, interior, suspension.

Not really...I couldve done it. I had suspension lined up for it and everything, but it wouldve taken every penny I had at the time. Everything is possible w/ enough money.

I will do it one day, but Ill start w/a rolling chassis or a stock EK, if there are any unmolested ones out there by then.
