But,,, it sounds as if you dont have any vehicle, and what happens when the landlord desires you to get your stuff and move?? leave it there? find a friend to move it??
...Why not get a real inexpensive Datsun with the motor combo you want , then slowly get that going good ( dont take apart more than you can get back together in a weekend ) and LEARN on a runner / beater then take THAT unit out and put into the vehicle of your dreams ,,when or if it ever comes along. .. And if it never does, or you find rickity old Datsuns aren`t your cup of tea ,,you could still sell as running car ,,cuz people don't pay shit for an engine they cant hear or see run ,,no matter what you have into it..
