Earlier this week, I went to a co-worker's house who has an AWESOME man cave pole barn with a two post lift. He's getting ready to build a 70s Olds Cutlass (not sure on the exact year) after he builds a new office desk for his wife (such manly, many saws, wow!).
Anyway, he has an old 1979 Dodge Colt that's in pretty decent shape for sitting outside the last 5 years. There's some rust spots (inside trunk and a hole starting in the outer door panel), but overall it's a nice looking car. I told him I thought it might wet someone's whistle and give his Cutlass fund a slight bump. What are the thoughts on a NP for it? He's positive he can get it running in a day, back seat it ratty and it needs a wash, but other than that it looks like a nice little project/driver with minimal work.
No SR20, however I can get pics tonight when I head over to do the u-joints and carrier bearing in Aces.

My first car was a 1980 Plymouth Champ. I'll say this, it wasn't fast, but was very balanced and a fun car to drive. Fun fact: the passenger can stick their feet behind the air ducts and mess with the pedals since the car was originally RHD. Not really worth much money wise though.
