Welcome Forty !

I always wanted to do a 924 or a 944 with an LS1 engine - it's already a rear transaxle car (The 944 turbo trans can handle the power of a warmed up LS1 ) and the cars are pretty cheap here right now. With the narrow roads in europe - that car would be a blast !

But your fellow countrymen might think I'm a little on the weird side if they saw my project...

Stay with the mopar because you like it and it will keep incouraging you to stick with it. PLan on a good motor, you dont have to have 800 hp to bew in the PT thing. The brakes and the suspension is where you want to spend the money and of course the paint and body.

I still have a budget of 20k and Im about 5 grand away. I still need wilwood brakes and a little suspension work.

Price everything. and try not to move away from the plan.
