Hey guys. I know this really doesn't fit this site. Buuuut, I have an old KIA two door sportage That's been kicking around for a couple years. It's a two wheel drive model.
The motor hasn't ran right since the timing belt broke and was replaced. Then it went through a flood. It's been parked for years. It looks like a minny jeep and us just been begging to have something stupid done to it.
All the KIA forums are no help. They either start with a 4X4 version, or find one. And add the KIA six cylinder. Here in Missouri there aren't either available. This thing has a small engine bay. So not a lot of room to cram much in. I want to build this up as a Really, really cheap mud toy. Nothing is sacred on this thing. So the only detuminug factor is cheapness. I'm looking for really cheap ideas for snall sized power plant, stick shift, four wheel drive, and axles doners.
Any ideas. I'm just looking to slap something together, super cheap, and go out and run the thing till it drops. Help me out this thing out if it's missery with some flare! Thanks for any ideas.
