I bought a green  93 MTX this morning hit hard in the pass rear quarter panel. After I rob of it of it's internals for my Ranger. I would be willing to let the front subframe go.

#2 report on the SHO wagon project...

The wagon (known in transplant-speak as "The Recipient") is a 94 LX wagon in
green/mocha with leather, moonroof, third seat, and EATC. In general it's
in excellent condition for a lady of a certain age (116K). She's wearing
excellent SHO slicers so she already looks a bit tarted up. Paint's decent,
body's solid, electricals work. Moonroof switch is busted, radiator
crimp-on end is leaking, usual stuff.

I have on hand the following SHO "donor" parts for implant:
-- Gen2 Sable-esque fenders with cornering lamps
-- SHO front bumper cover, header panel, and headlamps with fishtanks
-- MTX (probably needs a touch-up)

Major needs are:
-- 3.0 or 3.2 engine (Kirk Doucette said he'd donate)
-- MTX subframe

I'm thinking of cannibalizing parts from my 91 winter SHO:
-- subframe, tranny (has Quaiffe), rod shifter, console, and bucket front
seats

Any suggestions? I'm thinking I'd loft the front ends of the 91 and 94 and
drop the subframes. then swap. Obviously, the electrical wiring harness is
the hard part. I am happy to splice wires til Kingdom Come to make this
happen.

Any advice? If possible, I'd like to bring this SHO wagon to the upcoming
California convention. So any advice is welcome.
