Well whats wrong with it?
Cant be too serious if you are able to use the side skirts, bumpers, interior, motor and trans.

Maybe the under-side is out of whack. Bent frame? Rust on the underside. Cant pass emissions.

Cant be emisions. If it was emisions, why would he be moving the motor into another car? I have no clue, we dont have emisions here, so maybe there is a loophole I dont know about...

agreed.... Fix the SVT don't attempt a swap.
Only thing I can think of is cheaper insurance because of the zx3 VIN.

How about using the zx3 body parts to fix the svt?
Maybe I am jumping the gun. We still havent seen the amount of damage.

waiting on the pics. just to let you know it would be such a pain in the butt to swap all the stuff from the SVT to the ZX3 that you would probably feel like putting a bullet in your head by the time you are done. if you really want it tho then i say go for it.
