OK - simple story. For those that have been around we built a KLZE and LSD trans and, in 2009, mounted it in a proper Raspberry Metallic 1993 GS-SE.

It's been and continues to be a great car. 35,000 reasonable flawless miles since the upgrade. Driving it every day and it will still be a great car to any buyer but....salt is taking its toll on the midwestern car, it really needs a hood, and I have to get the A/C working as , if we keep the car, it will be hanging out in Lexington, Kentucky. Heck, I just drove to Dayton twice in it drafting trucks and got an easy (really) 27 mpg!!! And I really want to save the powertrain, drivetrain, brakes, interior, etc but the only way is to transplant.
So...given all of this and the fact that I will be in the Phoenix area in early May and DRIVING a truck back to Michigan from there I am seeking, either in or around Phoenix or even on a reasonable path back to Michigan the following to tow home:
An absolutely rust free shell. Just has to be a roller on one axle!! I'm not asking for much to allow this car to live on.
I can port everything over from the 1993 so generally I don't care what year it is as long as it has a great body, a sunroof (so A GS+ I suppose) no rust in an around the suspension and can readily accept basically everything from my GS-SE-ZE!!!! If yours has airbags, well, it won't anymore!!! OBD -II? Not much longer!! Emissions? Not so in Michigan.
When I am there I will take a peak at this mess posted on Craigslist at a local Phoenix junkyard:
For reference, the higher priority and more likely plan is to buy something where the sun shines to avoid rust but this was raised as a viable alternative. Yes we've done this before. But it was on (close your ears if you must) a Subaru!!!
Gimme your body!!!
