I have a junkyard I have been meaning to go to to see what of a longish list I might find with now and the future in mind. I'll add this to the list. What the hell. Could be useful in lots of ways...

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
