would it be worth the $100+?

So this guy is selling a 93 eclipse gsx for $100 that has a blown gasket and possibly warped head. I was wondering if it would be possible/worth it to buy it and take out the AWD setup and turbo and turn my car into a turbo+awd ralliart. all opinions appreciated

just buy the GSX and make it fast, way more potential than your ralliart

The car is worth more as scrap metal than $100. If you have the means to move the vehicle around (truck and trailer), buy it.

It's probably an April Fool's joke.
