I have a couple of friends who devellop alternative fuel systems here at the TNO-automotive research centre..
This guy used to drive a renault 5 GT turbo that pushed out around 250bhp on natural gas...eventually they got bored with the horsepower race, so he's concentrating on fuel economy at the moment (believe the 250hp engine was swapped into a Renault 4 of a friend of his). He once told me that any car can be made to run on LPG fairly easily, as long as you use your head. I'll give him a ring whenever gas prices start to escalate seriously...at the moment though, its still cheaper for me to run petroll (low kms/year).

A wheel to steer the front of the car
A pedal to steer the rear
