Just a little update. We just had a salvage yard open here. Take-A- Part "self serve auto parts". I checked it out. Nice place. I just bought a complete Aspire brake swap. Hubs, rotors and calipers, sway bar, front springs, rear beam drum to drum and the steel wheels/tires. Very clean parts. This all came from a super clean '97 with 82K. I could see that the car had just had new brakes. The pads look new.
The car had no rust, no damage. Nice, spotless interior, clean motor, Solid exhaust and only 82K on the clock. I found out why it was there while under the front. Both output bearings on the trans were gone. I mean GONE gone as in, no longer there. It must have been making an awful noise. Too bad, Such a waste of a good car. I'll bet the owner got about $200 bucks for it. I would have given the 3 bills. Add 2 more for a trans, swap iit n a weekend and had a 2k car. Oh well. Glad I got these parts finally. Maybe someday I'll get them put on.

I just fed the hatch popper cable around to the back but didn't get to hook it up. I ended up selling this car after my Dad died unexpectedly last fall.
