Which car?

I've been looking for a while for a reliant kitten to stick a bike engine in (probably mid mounted), if i cant find one of these, what are the seicento or cinquecento like in weight terms and mid-mounting for a bike engine? Or would i be better to wait for the fibreglass kitten??

The kitten would be much easier due to the seperat chassis and RWD setup! You could do it in a matter of days with the right kit, whereas a little fiat = new rear end setup etc! I would wait for the kitten myself!

Don't rule out the Reliant Rebel,they would be just as good as a Kitten but with the benefit of being tax exempt.There was one on E-bay only a couple of weeks back.

Forget the Cinq - do a proper, original Fiat 500. There was a very tidy one in a breakers a month or so agom so they must be out there!
