Default Stratus coupe RWD convertion

First Thread so bare with me. I've had thoughts about a RWD Stratus for a while now. It will be a big project. But I want something different than the rest. A complete Mopar. Not a Mustang, Camaro, Trans am. I think a v8 Stratus would be pretty cool and one he** of a sleeper.
My thoughts of how I should do this is take a Stratus coupe, strip it down to body and frame. Take a short bed Dakota and drop the Stratus body on the Dakota Chassis. A 318 with a manual trans. Coil over suspension. It will need a lot of cutting and welding to fit. A Hot Rod at that, but in my opinion it will be fun.
I just wanted to see what other dodge fans thought about my idea. Just a dream I guess. I still have a CJ-2A to build, so its just a thought. Let me know you're thoughts. Thanks!

If you have the means and will to do it, it can be done. Done right it can be very cool.

Guys have V8 RWD'd daytonas so it's doable. Do your research and go to town.

I've thought about 426 hemi rwd on my car, timing is just always off when I decide to go for it.
