thought you said you rallied that thing??? Looks pretty damn smooth, it'd go pretty smooth with an SR20 in it :D

Nice clean body to start with.
Keep the square front lamps, just replace them with halogen units, P.S. good idea to relocate the fuse box into something/where more weather proof.
Now to the traditionalist the motor would obviously be Lotus twincam....but not to upset too many people, my choice for a surprise package would be turbo rotary, as it's a neat compact powerhouse for that cramped engine bay....and hey, Mazda & Ford have been partners before.
In the end it's up to you.

hi the motor that was in it was a really well worked 1600 i have thought bout puttin and turboed sr20 in and even the rotary in as well i do rallie but my rallie car is a mk 2 there are many othere motors that would go nice in it but i have to get ridd of my other two cars first so i can get some money up theres only 1 prob putting a turboed rotary in it as im only 17 and this will be my first car so cops are goin to hate he but if i can find a cheap turbo rotary that was the main idea for this 1 and the next 1 witch could be a cortina will be an v8 or a capri if dad will sell me his but just want the black 1 fiished first
i have put a picture of my rally car up
