re. [urq] What a deal!

[djdawson2 at aol.com]

I bought an MC2 complete (all accessories, but no harness or ECU) out of a 90k mile, 91 200 front wheel drive automatic in 2000 for $600, for install into my '85 "distressed" UrQ.
 
Needless to say, MC2 engines are increasing in value.
 
Grab as many as you can... fast.

I tried to bid $200 with a max of $300, but won't accept any starting bids under $5000. 
 
Funny I had installed one similar to this in a nice '88 5ktq - I was felt fortunate to get over $3000 for the whole deal installed in car.

I can't believe that this engine isn't getting snapped up by some savvy buyer...
