I'm actually considering

I'm actually considering using a metro if I actually do an EV conversion. Metros are just so abundant, lightweight, and have been used many many times before.

Check out all of the EVs here:

The deductable might me more

The deductable might me more than the value of the car, don't you think? It'll prolly get totalled from a fender bender (as would my car), so meh.

the swift is the 1.3 4-cyl,

this swift is the 1.3 4-cyl, though, not the 1.0 3-pot. what would you want with a fuel hog like that?

ps - there are lots of these $100-500 near death units around if you really want one. the swift/metros were as popular in their day as the aveo now is in its class.

I don't see them for sale in

I don't see them for sale in NJ though, so I'm just amazed. I'd buy one for 50 USD to just do something really neat with it.

HOLY COW MAN!!

Man that is exactly where mine rusted out too - the right side. Damn that is just too scary - my personal injury lawyer friend was saying too bad I didn't get injured he could have sued the manufacturer BIG TIME. Frames are not supposed to rust out like that especially at a critical suspension point.
