random factoid...although i could be mistaken...

i'm pretty sure the original name for the omni prior to its release on the market was the "COYOTE"...as in...eats VW RABBITS for breakfast. i may be mistaken, as i may be referring to the turbo-charged model, the GLH (goes like hell...or GLHS goes like hell some more)...

either way...it would be sweet if a dodge engine bolted right up...i wouldn't be going through the mess i'm going through right now with my 1.9...i could just skip across town to the junkyard and i'd be stylin' again in hours.
