ctrl + f, "SSEI"
beat to heck 258K 98 Bonneville ssei (ssei = super sexy engine inside)
it has a series II 3.8L supercharged V6, same engine as my grand prix,
it also has a BOSE sound system and a HUD (projects info onto the windshield.
im not looking at the car, i just want to rob the sexiness from it, rebuild the engine and find a sexier body, (like a 05 caviler)
auction starts at 1000 i think this car should run about 1030-1045
you guys think 1 i should go for it and/or 2 i can snag it for ~500$
i doubt a dealer will want it and it cant pass inspection as is...

I do love the ssei engine, had a 2000 bonneville ssei. 1000 for just the engine is way too much, you could rip one out of a junkyard car for cheaper.

Ah, see, here in mid-MO junkyards just leave stuff sit. We have no pick and pulls....Kinda ticks me off.
$500 might be a decent price. But if anything is missing from the engine compartment, I would say no go.

I'm not sure it'll work in a j-body. Those seem to be a little small to fit such a large V6 in there.

Why not? To me it sounds like you already made up your mind before you even finished your post.

it will fit in a j-body just need to lube it up a bit...
guy wanted 600$ for it and the place upped their rates by 200$...
not worth it.
neighbors got a 05 350z with 9,000 miles, trying to get it for 13 (what he owes)
if not i dono guess i dont need another car...
