That's really cool! I used to spend hours digging through boxes of random parts to make things work. I am a little worried about whether the 3 bolts on the front would eventually punch through the metal at the top, but if it does, who cares, just throw a thicker plate under there. I have an old Kia too and I just replaced all my body mount bushings with worn out roller blade wheels, and they work great. And I'm old enough that I should know better. I love hacking things because I know that I have something unique.
