With all the borderline motorcycle parts on this thing already, a goldwing engine swap would be fun.

Okay so in the light of the living room it doesn't look as huge a score as one may think. However, allow me to walk you through. The horde. Almost everything you see here is unobtanium, aside from the owners manual.   My drivers inner doorhandle plastic is absolutely destroyed. This will be perfect.  A set of pristine black door panels. And what look like weather strips are original, unrotted, still pliable, still with the trim stripe on them, roof molding strips. I can install these tomorrow, theyre that soft. What the gently caress.  This may look like a crusty piece of poo poo but what you see my friends is the rarest part of the evening. What you see here is a 1973-1975 US two barrel early style civic 1200 carburetor.  And some different tails because why not.

I drove our ~5 year old company Jetta the other day and couldn't believe how bad the visibility was even vs. a car from 2001. On the plus side I could put the seat far back enough for my legs, but I was then sat in-line with the b-pillar and could see poo poo all out of the side. The jumbo pillars and high belt line make it feel like I was driving a pillbox around.

I bought the smalles car I could afford.  anything smaller increases exponentially with any decrease in dimensions. Heres a recap from the thread, didnt you just order a new Ram also? Smart car is shorter length but taller and wider.

Holy poo poo. This summer at Iola, there was a poo poo brown and seemingly rust free z600 in the car corral for much less than that. But this is the Midwest/Rustbelt so it makes sense - everything is very deeply hosed up. A rotted to poo poo muscle or pony car is unaffordable. And nobody wants a clean old Honda.

And it's front engine, RWD to boot, so much more space eaten up by drivetrain than either the Beetle or Civic. Also, the fuel injected DOHC 115 HP Corolla GT-S/MR2 engine bolts in pretty easy.  (stock Starlet power was 58 HP)

You can find them cheaper than that. I sold mine for $300 because it was going to a friend and parts are not only ridiculously difficult to source, but ridiculously expensive. Also mine was rusty and missing all the interior bits.
