A Porsche 924/944 torsion bar rear suspension could probably be modified
to fit.  IIRC the track is wider (I think around 3 inches?) so you'd
have to narrow it to fit.  (I was looking into this years ago when I had
a wacky idea of transplanting the engine and drivetrain from my old '78
924 into a Mk2...)
