so.......
i bought a 93 mainly for a parts car. it had new rear air bags, new headlights, and i needed some rear suspension parts after my car got while it was parked. anyway i wanted to see what you guys though about the engine. it broke the secondary chain that goes to the intake cam on the driver side head. the car was driving when this happened. so i am guessing that it has some heavy damage to the valves. maybe even the head. so do you think it is worth pulling the motor out to save, or just send it to the junk yard with the rest of the body?
 
Did actually verify the chain is broken?

If so then put a motor in it and keep on roll'n

If you broke that chain, then the intake cam probably seized, what parts are left on the car before you scrap it?
 
What color combo is this thing, and does anyone know...because I dont, is the 4.6 Interference?
 
strip it down, theres gotta be at least 800lbs of aluminum on a mark between the engine, tranny case, suspension pieces. whats aluminum goin for now adays?
 
color combo is champaign and grey interior. i have taken the headlights, right marker light, rear air bags, right mirror, and right fender, right outside door handle, and all of the left side rear suspension.

interior is rough. no wood. front seats are cracked. carpet stained. if anyone needs anything let me know.

since the engine has troubles i was just gonna take off the parts that i need and get rid of the rest of the car.
 
i thought car parts were considered dirty aluminum. but even so it may be worth looking into.
