90' 240sx

I got my dads old 240sx laying out in the front yard so i asked him if i could have it and he said yeh sure so all i gotta do is pay insurence on it and its all mine. Why now it runs (barely) it has over 100+k miles on the engine and needs a new clutch and a new head gasket but i still have hope of during it into my drifting car. I was thinking maybe down the road after i fix the probs to make it run to drop a s14 engine into it. But other than that i have no real path to what im going to do as i have no knowledge of cars really just a dream and desire to drift. So i was woundering if any of you could give me input, suggestions, advice anything at all would be helpful

Do you want the car to be street legal? I am asking because I see you're from CA and those smog-****'s won't like it much if you decide to go SR20DET or even a wild cam...

If its a hatch + 5spd I'd be interested in buying it.

SR20DE Forum for info about the swap. They are a lot of very knowledgable people on that forum.
