RocknrollRon's 1990 Vert GT project

OK, so before March 2015 I only had my daily driver Toyota....fast forward to now and add five (5) more cars!

Here are links to the five cars (in the order purchased):

1992 White vert automatic

1991 Red vert 5-spd original

1992 Blue 5-speed parts car

1990 Yellow 5-speed (to be GT rat-rod?)

1991 Swift GT parts donor car

The '92 White is 'reconditioned' and For Sale although I'm not trying hard to sell it...
The '92 Blue shell is gone but all the parts remained, cleaned-up, tagged, and stored as spare parts...
The '91 Red is a keeper with 86k original miles; will get cleaned up some more and rust repaired
The '90 Yellow is a planned rat-rod getting all the goodies from the Swift GT. If that doesn't work out I may look for a rust-free body if there is such a thing in the Northeast...

This thread will become my 1990 Metro Convertible & 1991 Swift GT merging project.
Moderator: Can I edit the title please?

Nice!!

At least you have an abundance of parts. I geo surfed the local junkyards to grab needed upgrade parts and some replacement stuff here and there and shockingly found next to nothing of the older cars. Probably 6 cars altogether for all years of Metros.

Looks like you'll stay busy for awhile!

I've supplemented all the used parts with some new Suzuki parts I got my hands on, too - mostly convertible specific.

I won't be needing everything I have so I'll probably offer some up to the GMF group members at some point...just need to keep sorting through everything I have, cleaning, refurbishing, organizing, and working on the cars....will certainly be busy for awhile!

It's just the frame for the top which I had just removed....removing the seats and top definitely make it easier to work on the interior!
