Discouraging News - '91 5-speed w/5-speed going to wrecking yard?

[urq]

I just spoke with my friend over the hill who owns a *real* '91 5-speed V8Q into 
which a 4.2 from a 1994 (IIRC) V8Q has been installed.  He tells me that the car 
remains parked at his house, and that any earlier interest never panned out.  It 
sounds as though he's close to having it towed to a wrecking yard soon ... 
something that I find to be quite discouraging.  I never expected the 5-speed V8 
to be as much a collector's car as an urq, but I did expect that there would be 
more value amongst those who know what it is ... and perhaps are DTM fans ...
