I would save the steering column, there is a really nice little UV jointed extension you may need to use, heater?, seats are quite narrow,switchgear?

Ok, thanks Mark, I will take a few more bits off then.
Is the radiator up to the job?

Probably, as long as you can get enough airflow, I would have thought it would be a bit wide though

Will the engine mate to one of the old rwd Fiat/Lada gearboxes?

Not sure myself Bryan, however, I am sure someone who knows will be along shortly!

It's only 999cc though and it's a tad poorly!

You can always make IRS with engine in the trunk ....

I'm 95% shure it'll fit on fiat/lada gearbox... for 1.6 fiat I'm 100% shure but for 1.0L

You can get 90bhp out of a FIRE if you try hard enough, and it light enough to carry under one arm. There is a plate to patch it onto a type 9, but I havent found a supplier yet
