    Treason? I say nay. Remember, the Omni and Horizon first came with a VW engine. Heck, the body is originally a Simca or Peugeot design that got Americanized.

    I think he should find a Crosley and make a 10 second car out of it.

    You let me know when you find a project car that is worth more than when you get done. Don't forget that you need to pay yourself about $10/ hour when doing this to get a fair comparison.

    No car is EVER worth the time and money you put in it, even, dare I say, a GN. However, the rate of return would be higher based on investment, that's all. I would wager that if he "hops up" a VW TDI Golf or something, then turns to sell it, dollar to dollar it would return much more strongly. It's really not fair to compare a TD to a more mainstream car because obviously the demand will be higher for the VW...

    Re: 10 sec. turnkey omni

    So....I must share this little story with you!

    Last night Mike called me and told me that he spoke to you and then the conversation went a little like this....

    Mike: "Hey I talked to Bruce today"
    Ruthie: "Thats great"
    Mike: "Yeah he sold his Omni"
    ***silence***
    Ruthie: "WHAT?? Why did he do that?""
    Mike: "Someone was willing to pay for it"
    Ruthie: "So??? Shouldn't this be some sort of family decision??"
    Mike: *laughs* "Im just kidding, he didnt sell it"

    I almost had a tear form in my eye Bruce when I thought he was serious! Really make sure this is something you want to do!

    The specs are a little vague and seem old in the cardomain link. Can you give a more detailed description of engine/transmission specs and any chassis mods? Thanks.

    What something is worth to somebody else only matters if you want to sell it...and should NEVER be a consideration when doing what it is YOU want to do.
