    strip the paint, rattle can it, and build the cheapest turbo set up known to man. Then just wait it out til it blows up, then turn the back seat into a couch and the front seats into office chairs. the shell can be a paper weight, and the wheels a coffee table. The exhaust can make for a potato launcher and the dash a mantel.

      Build a low compression turbo motor. b27 bottom end, b25 top end and slap a cheap turbo on it.

        make a night stand out of the crank/pistons being the base, and a glass top as the table top.

        baller, and gets good mpg too. :giggle:

                I was thinking about putting plexi glass over top of the block and hooking the water pump up to circulate cold water to keep a 6 pack cold. I doubt it would be very efficient tho.

                  haha yeah, not too efficient. But you could pull the pistons and circulate very cold water through the coolant passages with a motor hooked up to the factory water pump for circulation. That'd be pretty cool

                    Wouldn't be quite as easy with a straight 6, but I've always wanted to make some sort of cool engine coffee table/wine rack/art thing with a spare or dead engine
