Default 94 or 95 Hatch w/ B18?

Hi guys, don't flame a Honda noob.

I'm in the process of researching this build, and I've got some quesitons, because there are a lot of people who seem to know what they're talking about.

I've had a few Cavaliers, (tinkered with them too) and I want my next car to be something different. I like the 94/95 Hatchback body style, and I'd like to find a solid chassis, and drop in a B18 motor, (I've already decided on that motor). Manual tranny is a no-brainer. I'd like a coil-over suspension & all-wheel disc brakes. I want the car to be a year-round daily driver up here in Canada.

Also, where would you guys start looking for a chassis? My mom's mechanic buys cars with blown motors all the time, and so does my girlfriend's dad, so they're keeping an eye out, and I'm going to make a visit to the wreckers in the next couple of weeks. Can anyone else point out somewhere I might be able to find a chassis?

What issues will I run into? What should I look for? Are there any words of wisdom to impart? Maybe there is a previous post or another site I can check out for info?

Since no one else is going to tell you the 5th gen 92-95 is the best candidate for a b series swap check the forums or the reference section at http://www.hondaswap.com
