I'm toying with the idea of rescuing a dead classic when i get my budget back for my EV project.

Something like a 57Chevy (chev stats) or a 70's Dodge Charger (charger stats)

Curb Weights:
57 Chevy: 3,159lbs
77 Charger: 3,895lbs

Can this be done or would they be too heavy despite the extra space?
And there would be A LOT of extra space.
(yes, it would still be aero-modded.)
