Good idea, although i don't think my wife will go for it. I cant even have a DD in the driveway, let alone a wrecked car. I am already having a hard time convincing her that for the cost of an indie shop to rebuild the engine and then worry about reliability is about the same or cheaper for me to source a known good engine and install it myself.
