i get what ur saying, but the thing is.... if im going to commit to an engine swap, that really broadens the variety of what im willing to look at. Taking the factory drivetrain out of the debate, i would just pick whatever i thought was the best looking, most comfortable, or the right size i was wanting. If im just shopping for a chassis to swap a motor into, a jeep wouldnt be my first choice for styling. The only one i find that attractive is the old CJs with round headlights.
