One of my car fantasies is to get a Zetec tour from the junkyard REAL cheap and gut it in preparation for an autocross mule including the turbo and quaife.
I'd take it down to the sheetmetal in the interior, take out all the lights, dump the a/c, stereo, etc., lower it, pop on a graphite hood, add race tires and weld in a roll cage... that thing would freaking scream... might be able to get it down close to the weight of a normal civic or so... with 300 hp!
My current (and only) project is a 302 V8 that I just took out of a '72 Ford ranchero. I'm actually heading out to the garage right now to start on it again. I'm going to rebuild it and drop it into a jeep, most likely a cj-7 for an off road funmobile! Yeehaa baby.
