I was out hunting parts for my new Miata, and I spotted one 850 and one S70 with manual transmissions in the Waco Pick-n-Pull, if anyone's looking for 'em. There are three or four more 850s hanging out there, though they're automatics, and there were no wagons except a P2 V70.
I didn't need anything so I didn't mess around with them, but they all looked pretty intact and complete. At least one of the 850s was a turbo car.
Just a heads-up if you're hunting transmissions or stick shift bits.

A 5-speed conversion for my newly re- purchased 850 would be fun. I wish they would be closer
