I was actually just saying to Tim today that if I did make it into a pusher, it would probably be waaay easier for someone to bring it into the US, 'cause they'd only be bringing a trailer, not a vehicle. Then you could swap the parts into a good Metro host car.

I'm sure all the important bits will ultimately be used by someone. So it won't really go to waste even if it ends up being parted out, eventully.
You don't have the gumption to keep at it? Was it not really practical for your needs or is it just a little more work than it's worth?
