I tried that once - asked to buy a whole Metro with a really good body from a wrecker. They said "nope"!

I visited my machinist friend this morning to see if he's interested in this project. He's up for the challenge... pending a review of the actual parts and discussion about price.
So I started tearing apart my near-virgin OEM Blackfly transaxle this afternoon. Might as well use it for something. I'll be able to bring him the bits and pieces tomorrow morning.
Worst case scenario in the end is I will have my taller 5th gear, and will still have most of the lightly used, low miles parts should I ever need them, minus the shaft(s) that get sacrificed.
