Your spelling is nearly as bad as his ignorance!

The wheels on the car in the OP actually look pretty nice.

Nah, what you really need is one of them rotisary engines (excuse me rotisary MOTOR)

From craigslist:

i have a 1985, 1.1 liter rotisary motor, mazda rx7, manual transmission, good clutch 2 seater hatchback.. I love this car, was a daily driver but must sell due to leaving for the marines and wont have time in the next four years to drive it so i figure i might as well give someone else an opportunity too.
