But a performance motor swap ~ even in something like that, isn't in the realm of impossible.

Good friend of mine took an late-70s Toyota Starlet (a very entry-level car smaller than the Corolla for those that do not remember the Starlet) and shoved a turbo MR2 motor in in with the 5 sp manual out of the same MR2. No - no small block but it was certainly a quick ****in' little car.

Nobody ever stated it was impossable, just a lot more money then a 16 year old has...

Trust me it isnt that difficult,just some intelligence, and just have a vison and u can do,not to mention I built my first motor for my pick-up a few months after I turned 17

Granted - but if he got lucky like my buddy Joe did and happen across a donor car in a junkyard and get the motor and ****** for $800 it'd certainly be worth the effort, eh?

Well, I guess the average 16yr old still won't have $800 to blow either, huh?

Nevermind....

Are ou kidding me? Just keep it as stock as possible, clean it up good, get it running and charge someone in some distant state who has been looking for another one of these FOREVER 2000 dollars to take it home.

Believe me, if it is a rare car, don't modify it. Keep it clean to preserve that worth. You gotta better deal than I did for free. 85 Caddy Eldorado: I have to replace brakes, the headliner, the seats... Gah, it's a mess. If that just needs a head gasket- thatz gravy.

Wall + good tint job + bank of HC2400's + couple SI Mag's = fun little SPL vehicle //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Small enough to be easily trailerable.
