AWD - It's been talked about. Alot. Options

[Gildier]

So, I am purchasing a 1997 Toyota Celica GT with a silvertop 4AGE 20v (MT). I plan on slapping a 3SGTE and new clutch on it to handle the power, but here's the kicker:

I want AWD.

Why? I'm a GT-Four enthusiast. I know the '94 will be legal in 2019, but this is a project I want done before Christmas because it'll be a present for my father, who's been eyeing the GT-Fours for 13 years now.

NOW, the fun part. Do I care about price? To an extent. Please don't tell me "if you want AWD just go buy a subaru". No. Screw you. I want a GT-Four, lol.

Is it at all possible to ship a GT-Four sans internals and have US VIN marked parts such as a 3SGTE and tranny + diff etc dropped into it? Or would there be a VIN issue due to the VIN being stamped into the car itself and it being a japanese body not having a US standard VIN?

Maybe just order a GT-Four frame? Transfer EVERYTHING onto the new frame?

Or for the builders, fabricate a subframe and bolt everything to it and call it a day? Cut out the spare tire well, run a new fuel cell (ST205), extend the brake lines, and welding in drive shaft support brackets?

Just wanted some up-to-date info. Thanks guys!
