I had a thought and a couple of questions.  I was thinking about putting a

cooling anyway, and changing the case and power supply would be the biggest 
thing, but the easiest as soon as I find one that will fit.  I'm really 
wondering what are the thermal limits of them?  How well do you think it will 
fair?

Your automobile, unless it's like my 1982 Jeep, has a CAN bus that it uses to 
send information to its plurality of microprocessors.  You really should find a 
processor board that can read the bus but that will not be an Apple board.  J K 
Microsystems has some nice ideas and they will run Linux. Some of them are 
great with the likes of music.

But then getting the formats for the CAN bus might be tricky.
