BTW - thanks for the kanter link; we'll probably use that.

i'm on IFSJ, and am familiar with the M715 & 725s. Most of the ones that stayed on-duty were converted for propane, as well. *shrug*

Yup; that year they still made the classic Willys body panels too. Unfortunately Willys America doesn't carry it, irrc; we were living in Arizona for a while & they were about an hour away.. looked at them for the ring gear.

on an old car? Nothing is easy.. lol

.. isn't that an Equinox in the states? just less .. ground clearance?

Thanks. Must've missed it before. :)

how do you switch from one profile to the other though? O.o

Chevy Equinox with a bed.. stylistically anyway. o.O

rare from Chevy these days. o.O lets see if they don't botch the drivetrain options.

sounds like you had a lemon. Sorry to 'hear'.

I agree; ended up with one as a Rental in Hawaii. Was actually a pretty decent SUV for all the hate it gets. The exterior is up to personal taste, however.

my ACR was a 1st gen DOHC; my Sport was also a DOHC, but man, could you tell the difference in the suspension ALONE. Was glad when I put the SRT/4 seats in it. SOOO comfortable.

Neon sales took a nose-dive when Daimler took over for the 2nd Gen & plumped em up with little to no changes otherwise. '98 was the best selling year for the Neon, until the SRT's came around, iirc.

.. and? A Neon is cheap. A stick-shift neon is harder to find, however. People tend to keep them.

1 - Because it's mine. Not a banks, not anybody else's, but mine. Thank you Dodge for the free car. :)
2 - Stick shift. It's going to be a rare option, because mine is a fully-loaded Limited model. Has everything but the automatic, sunroof & block heater.
3 - It's a great car for the price-range, and size. It's got…

Apparently, despite the size, the Dart's aren't half bad either..

add one part stupid idea and/or driver to one part vehicle; voila, problem created.

NEON! Most people that have experienced the Neon, have only had an automatic. Try a 5-speed.. or better yet, an ACR model :)

is that 6 though? o.O can't tell from here.

.. It's a real image.
