Waterproof the ignition a must, fit breather pipes pointless having a snorkel else, roll cage if its a rag top, increase the ground clearence by fitting bigger tyres, maybe a bodylift.

I'm sorely tempted to drop a 200TDI engine in there. 18mpg with the petrol engine in there!
Not sure I can get a body lift without changing the springs. Although spotted some parabolic ones that would fit nicely and improve the ride. I think brakes are the first thing on the list, along with a new pickup top.

I would second or third a 200tdi. Have seen it done where the engine is transplanted in without the turbo, returns very good economy but retains more than enough performance.
How much you going to spend on a Mig welder?
