I can put a windshield in pretty easily and get it back on the road but water would still enter through the back door: ![[Linked Image]](http://i86.photobucket.com/albums/k102/bourge/DSC04701.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i86.photobucket.com/albums/k102/bourge/DSC04703.jpg) A body swap seems pretty straight forward. Anything I should know about before trying to find a body for it?

I'd rather do a dozen engine swaps than one body swap.
vr4's on the money. Find an SR with a blown engine and put your belongings on.
... good.. bad.. I'm the guy with the gun.

They have 2 C4C's in a junkyard near me, not sure if they are SR's but the word is you can buy a complete C4C at this place if you buy two large elements on two different days i.e. buy the body one day then the chassis the next.
