Does SC stand for "Small Coupe"?

I saw a 93 SC for sale a while back. The body looked great. Those early Saturns had the "dent resistant" sides on them, which were fiberglass or plastic or something rustproof. Same problem though, in that it was an automatic. I would have bought it if it were stick. Really nice looking car too - kinda sporty.

Weight on those cars is reasonable.

Be careful of buying any car without a title. I bought my motorcycle frame without a title. I was able to get a title by sending in a wad of money and paperwork to the DMV, but it could have been worse.

Find out from your state DMV what you would need to do to get a title before you buy something without one.

If it's no big deal, great. But it's good to know what you are getting yourself into ahead of time.

The last thing you want is to put lots of time and money into a project and not legally be able to drive it!!!!
