the shell will be not strong enough,there too old and will need strengthing up,hence the cage etc..

you need a decent axle with uprated shafts,lsd,brakes etc..., decent susp,brakes,fuel suppy, the intercooler/radiator is £1k plus from Pro-Alloy.

i suppose you can do it cheaply, but you still need the car/parts to cope with the power etc...

it will be worth it in the end as the cars are fetching stupid amounts of money.
