I was curious. Would the cheapest way to get a project car be to go to the wreckers and buy like a piece of crap for like $50? I want a toyota project car because Toyota's are very reliable. I had my eyes on a RA60 Celica. What would be a good Toyota enigne in it? Is a 3SGTE good? I was going to put an SR20DET in one but I was to stick to Toyota. So this means sticking to their engines.

and don't buy fro a wrecker.. buy from trading post.. you can ften pick up abandoned projects that are very good value, but some.. are not so good value 
is all about looking around, geting a feel for whats out there...
then again, some ppl pay $50 for a T-shirt, so any car/parts for that much as to be relatively good value

Wreckers will charge alot for a car from their yard.
Pool over the tradingpost and get an idea of what you are after. for you look for somthing that is EFI and has an F series diff already in it. Save youself some grief. 
RA65 and RT142 ar good starting points for a 1G conversion.
