I just found this while window shopping on ebay. It would go well in the back of a pickup.

Bit pricey though.

Ian that is quality conversion. I personally think you should use both engines. The cable gear shift will make life a little easier. It will be good to follow your progress as these engines are being scrapped more and more these days and would make a nice change to the norm. I have a MK1 MR2 and a MK1 Fiesta. I hope to combine the two over the summer.

Cheers Kev
