Plus I love diesels.
So if (when) I find someone who can get into the ECM, I will try the TDI motor in something classic.

One thing that I think would be an AWESOME swap for a TDI would be a 34 ford coupe....or a model A. Something very small that is lightweight where the diesel could really shine.
