WTB wrecked or rusted Saturn or Metro or ?

Planning on a 2F1R trike project.

Must have a good tranny (manual).

Motor intact but may need a rebuild.

Rear end wrecked is fine. Its getting sawzalled off anyway.

Would like the front suspension intact.

A Geo with the front rusted out will work fine.

Saturn S series is light with an easy to work on engine.

Of course a 1996+ is prefferred for OBD2 reasons.

A Diesel Golf would work fine.

Not a big fan of Festivas, sorry.

Thanks Christ, but I'm wanting to stay below 2 Liters on the engine.

Somebody has to have a rusted out Metro in their field.........

Shame, I junked a complete Crx front end, minus the sheetmetal, last year. I'll keep an eye out for something though.

Thinking about it, the junkyard I just bought Steve from had a couple metros. If you're doing custom, you'll probably use a motorcycle title, right? Dyno what they'd sell one for though...

Ethier a motorcycle title or a custom. Depends if I can get a clear title to start with.
Here in SC. They have a 3 wheeled car class as well. If I can get a donor with a clear or salvage title, I prefer that route.

That CRX sounded perfect.
