    this is a rare & very clean & solid car . does not have motor, it was almost completely restored 3 years ago but cannot finish due to being disabled am willing to trade for a wrecked late 90's chevy truck that has good motor & trans , must be able to drive enough to see that drivetrain is good . may consider other wrecks as possible trade call with what you have & we'll see what we can do. thanks for looking & please call Russ at 269-663-2681 between 9am.-8pm.

    Oooo it looks like a Subie boxer would fit nicely under that hatch.

    That's almost too nice for me to do what I'd like to with it.

    Almost....

    I doubt it.

    33" wide + room to remove the plugs.

    That car is probably about 51" total width. That would only leave 9" each side from the outside of the fenders to the inside of the frame rails.

    ...Of course, who the heck am I trying to tell YOU what you can and can not dump a boxer into!!

    Give me a break- it's widened and custom framed. That doesn't mean a Subie boxer would "fit nicely under that hatch". It only proves my point.

    woah there, big fella - I wasn't trying to start a fight or play any semantics games, just thought I would show an example of what has already been done.

    carry on . . . ;)

    I'm not picking a fight. I'm CERTAINLY well aware that with a welder an a willingness to draw outside the lines (or fenders ), the options are fairly limitless.

    I didn't think that was what he meant when he said "fit nicely under the hatch".

    Since I've spent some time playing with boxers and microcars, it kind of seemed relevant.

    Carry on...

    very Noddy looking - would make an awesome Clown Car.

    this is a vague approximation of the Renault 4 that used to be kinda everywhere in Ulster when I was a young'un.
