205 Shell, what to do?
Discussion
I bought myself a 205TD runabout a while ago. It needs a new driver's side hub and there's a coolant leak and i can't be arsed spending money on it to go back to standard.
It owes me next to feck all but it's a really good shell. I am trying my best not to tinker with the 911 so i fancy a project again.
So what should i do with it? I'm looking for a bit of inspiration.
I'm a dab hand with a welder so it really can be as daft as you like. I'm thinking mid/rear engined, swapping to a 4wd platform, twin engined, something quite out there.
Here's the "beast" in question :
It's got a pretty mint GTi interior so i'll sell that on and i'll get something back for the engine and associated parts, that will pretty much give me back what it owes me.
So free reign, go nuts, what do you think we should do?

Had an Mi16 when i was 23. Loved it to pieces. that was a hoot but if i go that route it has to be a minty GTi. That ain't this car.
V8 is a possibility but it'd have to be transverse, just don't think there is room for longitudinal mounting, even with the super short Audi V8's. I do have the audi gearbox there though.
I'm thinking something i can lift a "clip" from and slot in the car.
