    You can but anything you want on a car, you just have to be dumb enough to do it and smart enough to accomplish it. Most are lacking in the smart part.

    For the price of the conversion, it wouldn't be worth it. Also, nothing has a close enough body style to look good on a GP.

    The only thing I would ever try on a GP would be a Holden front end.

    The only one that I could see doing that would maybe look good is a GTO front. Other than that, nothing would fit the body line and look good.
