    Hey Streets,
    You forgot "Guaranteed not to bend, break, chip, peel, crack, go up in smoke, or run down your leg". Then I think you'll have covered about everything...

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

    Ha Ha Ha. U cant chop it channel it or anything, it's never goin 2 be a street rod cause u cant mod it cause, Saturns bodies are made of 100% fantastic plastic, that's why they have " Dent resistant doors ", try cutting plastic wit a torch ul end up wit a puddle on the floor. and also as Streets said it is not made between the years of 1900- 1948 ( but I think 1949 myself ) so that's that. What I suggest is get a 1900- 1949 American made car then get a Chevy 350/350 combo and ford 9" rear and build a Streetrod this way but, use ur Saturn seats for the interior cause I have seen many rods with Saturn seats. At least this way part of ur POS Saturn will make it's way into a streetrod or hotrod, and provide comfort for it's passangers.

    Eli You can always take down the road a hope someone hits it. Then you can start all over again with "METAL"

    I even think the gas tank is made of the red gas can plastic but a diffrent color, but I'm not shure. The unibody is plasticoted ( I belive ) to prevent rust. The only good thing about them is they dont rust but, if ya leave them in the sun to long there body panels start to warp.

    Eli, I suggest going with Chevy37's idea and play a little game of " Chicken ", but be careful not to damage the seats, they do look good in a street or hotrod.
