Is it possible? Someguys would say so, as long as you have money, lots of money. The last car I read about getting its motor rebuilt, was over eighteen grand.

For that kind of coin, buy a car already done (selling yours first).

Lots of cars out there, you just have to know where to look

That may have been the car (ad/thread) that brought me here to this site in the first place. All the supposed "experts" of this site, full of


Last I heard/read, the owner still had the car (if it is the same one). I did not see it advertised much, so who knows
