Soooo many ideas. Even though I can't even find enough time to mow the lawn I own the starting point for about 6 of them. 
Oh where to begin:
-v8 swapped Volvo 240 track car (previously discussed 8000rpm 4.8L SBC BECAUSE RACE CAR) -200+whp Firefly Turbo rally-car -500awhp jdyam STi track car -any sort of Merkur or Starion/Conquest making absurd powa! -v8 swapped FD for UTCC
That is the short list I think...

+1.
And the above turbo coupe does NOT help AT berkeleying ALL.
The regulars here will remember what's inside, I expect.
Imagine Javelin's pic, except in black inside and out and tinted. BIL had on in his shop. The owner even had the plate "Stealth" for it.
It looked evil.
SVX swapped forester bolted up to the STi 6 speed
Oh god.
Rotary powered Plymouth Cricket, Subaru Justy rally car, Modified MoPed and a locost style car except using an old pre war American body.
Many things. Oddly, the immediate task of building a new front subframe and suspension for the 2002 is just a thing I think about.
The recurring obsessive thought is a mid-engine tube chassis clothed in a VW fastback.

I've also been having bad ideas about a SVT Focus with the EAP package.

I'm glad to see I'm not the only person haunted by the specter of an NA Miata stage rally car. I know I can't afford to stage rally, I know I don't have near the time to compete in more than one or two rallies a year, I know that the only Miata around is so rusty it would likely rattle itself into powder from a season of rallycross, but I can't let go of the idea.
VQ swapping the sentra, what engine combo to put in the camaro, lately its been turbo mopars some, as theres a derelict sundance I drive by daily.
My biggest problem is shopping, im constantly looking for something, even crap I cant afford. I say its as big a part of the hobby as owning one.
Honestly, I stay up late at night building my ultimate garage than anything else.
Or
FE3X concept, and a 1st gen s-dime autox toy...like Kylie Minogue...I cant get you outta my head!
DeLorean with modern STI power set up for the track... at Laguna Seca...
Shoot, I should be going to sleep too.
'88-89 300ZX - weight + Z32 rear suspension + RB26DETT.............something I've wanted to do ever since I got rid of my '88 10+ years ago.

We have a similar delusion. I see this:
Plus this mounted midship:
Held together with something like this:
Ford engines and transmissions that bolt together and will fit in Sevens....
I dream of a running fiat...

I know they always say to dream big dreams... but 'cmon man. You gotta reign it in a little. That is crazy talk.
Building something that resembles this in my garage.
Hmmmm, fixing the 6k(my self) in hail damage on the Rio, and using the rest of the money to pay off some small bills
1hp per pound car.
