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.
