okay guys i know i sounded gelojo.. but what i ment was like this.. the rule of thumb to do anything with a classic car is to restore the chasis first(realignment, strenghtening, rust treatment) then you move on to either going part by part upgrade that takes a longggggg time or... you could get a half cut, preferably another mitsu from the 80s or early 90s, transplant whatever you can from it. you might have to modify a few things to fit.. from then on keep track of what parts taken from what car as to ease the finding of replacements and repair-kits. but before you install the engine its adviseable to repace all gaskets, rubber components and thurough engine wash. you dont know how long its been under the sun and rain.. cheers.
