I want to build a subaru brat onto a toy frame. I looked at the beast yesterday and I remembered it's all subframed. I am working on a junkyard budget, but how can I build enough frame to mount the brat body to a frame?

Use the Brat's suspension mounting points to tie into the Toy frame.

there are barely any. The rear is a tube like rear toy shock mounts that arm like ford radius arms hook into. The front is IFS...2wd

I saw a brat on an early bronco frame, 302 and all. He had cut and fabbad most of the floor though. it was way cool, back in '82.

gotta use whats there or completely redo it, like DRM said, use the susp points, i know not much there, but the arms mounted there once i'm sure you can think of something.
