My car is almost perfect inside and out. New parts everywhere And in great shape to begin with. Only needs a motor

Thanks old goose. I'll consider it
Yeah I can't find a decent motor in a running driving car for less than $2,000 around here
Crazy Larry, I can find the official website for Recon. Do you know it? Is it http://recengines.com/ ?
