I don't know where you're located, Dude, but the pull a part in Louisville shows to have a green 1998 5 speed on the lot. Been there since April. Here's the link. ttps://www.pullapart.com/inventory/search/?Locations=8&MakeID=52&Models=1167&Years=-1&LocationPage=false&LocationID=0#results

You're only after the transmission+ the bits needed, yes?
You also want an MP3 (for DOHC) yes?

Not sure how an MP3 works with a DOHC engine
(This all assumes whitey is a DOHC.)

Check Saturnfans stickys.

D'OHH!!!

There has to be a backup copy of that database out there somewhere. They're just has to be. Nobody is that stupid.

Of course he didn't install the malware software that would have blocked all the bots 10 years ago like everyone else did.

The time machine site stopped visiting about 5 years ago so that won't work.

Whoever bought the domain still has a pointer to the database showing, so we can only hope that they are un****ing things and rebuilding it.

After thinking I had a donor car, I did not. Have to put Goldy back in service, so cradle is out, warshed and ready to reseal everything while apart, all ROCK auto stuff super cheap. It will be all fresh w/all new rubber hoses ect. She only has 65K on her so it should be trouble free fer a while! Took this before warshing.......

Even though that's before washing, it looks pretty clean to me. Happy to hear you'll have it back on the road.
