Project Car Help

[jeffc]

Hey folks. I've decided to start work on a new project car. Its a domestic hatchback (thats all im sayin) and i want it to look like a rally style car. I need some direction however. I have a broad idea of how i want the car to look, but i need some help. anyone have any links to hatchback rallycars by chance?...also i need some help with the prepwork and painting...i hava all the equipment needed..but i just need a procedure. Thanks.<p>Jeff

what kind of hatchback it is? if u need help with paint & body pm me i will be able to walk you step by step. I like looks of civic hatchback and aftermarket type R roof wing, hopefully we will be making these soon for mx3 too.

actually its a pontiac firefly. 92 i believe. I went to look at it tonight. The thing runs, needs a bid of body work, but its a 4-door. I was hoping it was a 2 door. I can probablly get it for $100 so I dont know. I think i may know for a volks golf diesel so i think i might wait to see that one first...Either way...i need some cool ideas for a rallycar theme.

all i can say is Suzuki swift 1.3 DOHC engine. That engine has the most HP for those cars. Theres a guy who turboed that thing to 300 hp.
