Likely built and rated for off road use only, geared for low end grunt, top speed only 66 mph. Much work on the engine & transmission and much $$$ needed to make it into something practical on top of the $11K price of the donor vehicle IMO. Why not just chop off the back half or 2/3rds of a Metro and build a frame for the seats and trailing wheel? It would have engine, transmission, front steering and suspension already figured out and in place. Heck, even a cockpit heater and maybe optional A/C already attached. (radio too)
