There is a local fellow and his son that wrapped a bugeye body around a Big
Block Hemi.

I say wrapped around because they built a custom chassis including
suspension.

It is yellow and has been discussed here before.

If I were to put a V8 in a Spridget it would be a rubber bumper car since
they are stronger overall.  It would go in way farther back than a stock
setup.  They can be had all day long for 500 to 2000 bucks.

Lets say you buy a Big Healey for 10K and drop a V8 in.  It is still worth
10K maybe 15.

It left stock it is worth 20K once running

Thank goodness Spridgets still sell primarily as
drivers...

That's because there isn't enough room to easily put something bigger in 
there.

Hmmm, I wonder if the Buick/Rover V8 will squeeze in a Bugeye?
