Performance for pennies?

Morning from Texas?

Last night I was chatting with a guy from England telling
him what I wanted from my Beetle project? He told me
how to get the every thing I wanted out of my project with
out the $$$$$$$?

He bought a Pontiac Fiero and stripped it down to the frame it's unibody
I know but it strips better that a 914! Then you shorten the frame up front
5" to 6" and the wheelbase is then that of a Beetle! With a little body mods
you have a V6 Beetle with 4 wheel power disc brakes, power steering, and
a 5 speed trans! with a output of as little as $500 to $1000 for the whole
Fiero! Thats less that the cost of a good 914 motor?

The cool thing is the V6 is a 2.1 to a 2.8 stock and
they make so many aftermarket performance parts for the Fiero!

What do you think?
