[V8] Estimated Value of '91 5-speed w/4.2?

[Ron Wainwright]

I just did a 4.2 swap into a 91 5sp for George Turr. I
think the car has a bit over 230k to the body.
 The 4.2 motor has 120k'ish. I did a GAC full t-belt
including valve cover gaskets, caps/rotors, plugs,
dizzy flange & dizzy gaskets. Rear main seal, & a few
other things.
 By no means is a 4.2 swap a direct swap!

 But George's car is Black on Traverntein.

 I would think he could get North of $6/$7 Thousand.
 Paul just got close to $8 Thousand for the GE.

 When I had a bit of a feeler out there for my Blk/Blk
91 5sp I was offered a tad bit South of $7 Thousand.
But mines no ordinary 91 3.6 5sp ;-)
