There is a shitton of potential, but it'll prove to be a money pit unless someone really has the time, energy and know-how to fix it up right. Very sad

I'd love to give it a home in my garage, but too many projects as it stands and I doubt the owner will let it go for what he should.

I have kicked around the idea of building a twin engined Accent.

It would be a FAR better idea to re-do the car from scratch than try to fix what Dragon fabricated as a proof of concept vehicle. Probably cheaper, too.

Probably, but it pains me to see a good Tib go to waste.

It's salvageable despite the cost. He'll it'd be fun to build it into an MR power plant and put a monstrous motor back there. But, all dreams.
