Got the mass to my liking and did this quick pencil layout for the illustration. Scanned and tinted blue.
The Saturn L series is a line of automobiles, sedans and station wagons that were made by Saturn Corporation in Wilmington, Delaware.
Poor sales of the L-series cars caused GM to cancel the line for 2005. About 406,300 L-series cars were built in this period. The plant was then retooled to build the Pontiac Solstice and Saturn Sky roadsters.
The replacement for the L series, the Saturn Aura, arrived in August 2006 for the 2007 model-year. The Aura was built on the Epsilon platform, also shared by the Pontiac G6, and the Chevrolet Malibu.
The L series was troubled early in production by a number of quality issues, often related to engine failures, transmission failures and overall fit and finish issues. Consumers reported repeat problems with tire noise and vibration linked to poorly designed control arm bushings and nonadjustable rear alignments. A retrofit kit was released to address these concerns.
My mother-in-law had a Saturn wagon, the V6 version of the car, and I can say that it was about the least competent for age car that I have ever driven.

Remember that grotty looking V8 a few days ago?
Well its back, and looking much better than before! Its been extensively cleaned and has had new bearings and rings fitted.
It will be getting re assembled in the coming days with a number of new parts from the US including lifters, rockers and gaskets.
Once the engine is back together and in the car it will be off the to Dyno to be run in and then onto the tuning, stay posted for updates!
