Dont do it.You will almost need a parts car to do it.Nothing wrong with the ultramatic.No you wont be "HOTRODDING" any one but afterall we are not talking about a Chevy or Ford this is after all a luxury car.On the other hand I am a bit narrow minded on this subject.I also once told someone at a car show who asked me what I thought of a "rat rod" of a Packard.Yeah, I told him I thought it was the most idiotic idea I had ever heard of.Yeah, he walked away from me in silence.I just hope he took my advice. sorry you "rodders" Brian
