hey guys, glad to see that there are fellow geo enthusiasts out there. I bought a red 96 geo metro a few months ago a few fixes here an there and the engine is officially sound. only one problem, the body is thrashed! front bumper, hood, head liner, interior dash and plastics, carpet. is anyone on here parting out their cars? or know of any places that are reasonably priced?

Im located in California between San Diego and LA

Welcome aboard! Craigslist can be a good place to find parts, You can also search here http://car-part.com/ and of course just keep your eyes open when you are out and about. Good Luck!

Check the classifieds on this site. Also check out teamswift.net. Lot of swift parts in northern CA and Washington. If your gonna replace exterior plastics why not try to locate some from a Swift GTi. If not just go to a local pick n pull. Keep an eye on craigslist. There is a nice phone app for Craigslist that notifies you as soon as something gets posted in your area. Good luck

Welcome to your new forum, Chare003! :coffee

My friend Chris had an old beat up Volvo or something and was driving someone to Fashion Island Mall in Newport Beach where he parked it between two VERY nice cars. His friend made some comment (I forget) and he said 'What. They aren't going to open their doors and ding them on my car.' :lol

I have about 3-5 minor dents in my Geo and that makes it undesirable to other people and thieves. :-/

thanks for the tips! ill get the app downloaded!

i can handle a few dings here and there by my hood looks like an accordian. im a female, it makes me look bad. enough said

so far ive ripped out the headliner up to the aluminum covering. im thinking just for shits and giggles ill tape some stars up there and spray black paint over them. it'll give my guests something to giggle about until i can drop a few bucks on a new liner. :P

also, im halfway through sanding down my dash. when im done ill either paint it the orgional grey or stock black.

ill post pictures once things start to shape up :D

thx for the welcome everyone.
