So I currently have a written off 900cc Fiat Seicento sat on my drive, and it's got me thinking. The engine and drive train seem in good nick (needs a new radiator) so perhaps a possible project.

I initially thought a buggy of some sort, seen Blitzworld do a Fiat Seicento donor based machine as do Animoto. Only downside is that even the frame on it's own is blinking pricey, but I understand that they're looking to cover costs, development and make some money.

So how realistic would it be to design and weld up my own frame (haven't welded in nigh on 15 years). Anyone done this? Ideally I'd like to get it through the SVA test.

Anyone got any other kind of ideas of what I could do with the old Seicento that could be a bit of fun...?

Sell it for spares on EBay and spend the £250 on coke and hookers?

To be honest had my fill of coke and hookers, they're 10 a penny round these parts anyhow.

Just fancied playing with an engine...
