Default salvaged ITR

anyone ever had a dream about buying a salvaged Type R with interior and body still intact and the other stuff still there but with no motor and tranny? . .
. . well i had a dream once i had a PY ITR and i had a IVTEC swap. its a pretty cool dream, but too weird! . . . has anyone you know done such a thing to an ITR ?
hondata- 4 and CAI on a salvaged ITR or with ITB's ? sh*t would fly i know for a fact and a sh*tload of work, but it is possible to do so am i right ?
in the end youd have the best of both worlds a Dc2 ITR body and a IVTEC type S engine ?

You know the funny thing is I had a dream similar to that too. I think it was Tuesday night I had a dream about buying a stripped/stolen CW ITR they had at a junkyard I knew and turning it into the coolest RR car. It seemed so real that I had to go to the junkyard the day after to see if it was still there. It was stripped from down to NOTHING. It didn't havea single bolt left of the car pretty much and has sat there for the last 3 years that I knew of.

I ended up running there as soon as possible the next day to see if it was still there and if the owner was willing to cut me a deal on it since I'm a good customer. So I asked them if the white R is still back there and one person said it was. I ran around for like 30 min trying to find it, but was left with nothing. Came back in and an employee told me they just crushed it because they had nothing left except a perfect bare shell.

Funny, dream of buying a stripped R and turning it into a beast and end up losing mine.

If you're lookin' for an R shell, I'd say check this out: http://www.craigslist.org/pen/car/20793579.html
Both R have missing engines, only.

I've always wanted to see an R with K20A head mounted on a built TSX block. Sounds fun.
