Well thanks for the advice. I had thought about the engine swap because other things are easier to acquire and the car itself could serve some purpose other than sitting there collecting rust. I had even thought about putting in a 6 cylinder 96 Taurus motor which I can get ahold of for around $300. At least I could drive it to the store and back. Grocery runner.Do you know if it would be difficult to swap out for something like that with the intentions of swapping back later?
