    You'd have to cut and weld a tunnel into the car aswell for 4wd or specifically rwd.

    For 2wd couldnt you just stick a engine in the back even though you wouldnt then have a boot? and a fuel tank in the front or something?

    look at Z-cars, kit cars.
    
    tbf, if you were going to make it RWD, you'de need a spaceframe to fit it in, and a way of gettin the power to the wheels etc. Plus, all new linkages etc to make everthing work.
    
    Would be fun though
