Just wondering, if you had a '98 Accord as a project car, what would you do to it?

I picked up a new car recently but still have the Accord sitting in front of the house. I think I might be able to get $3000-$4000, but my mind has been racing about the kind of fun you could have with a car like this. I say 'shell' because the motor in the car is pretty much shot, it's knocking pretty hard and burns about a quart every 500 miles.

So, if you had a 'spare' Accord sitting outside, what kind of crazy projects might you start on it?

I always wondering if I had enough time/money, if you could bolt up an Acura MDX drivetrain and go AWD or RWD. Just throwing a hair-brained idea out there.

hmm, i'd take a h22 resleeve it and all the internals and get as much displacement as safe on boost and boost it.

i'd try to get my hands on the latest j32 making 270hp and go from there. that car would be fun as hell at 2500lbs after it;s all stripped out and modded to handle the power
