If you look under the hood on this 1991 Honda Civic hatchback you will not find a 1.5 L inline-four. Instead you will find a 12 gallon fuel cell because the engine has been moved to the back of the car. Lifting the rear hatch you will see a naturally aspirated 3.0 L 6G72 V6 from a Mitsubishi 3000GT connected to a five-speed manual transmission. If you are interested in making this your next project car it is being sold in Columbus, Ohio with an asking price for $2,000 OBO.<\/p>\n
