Dude!!!I've been looking for a parts car since I got my car in 03,  
and you find one in my backyard from across the country.....well as  
it turns out the price was a mistake.  He said his dad put the ad in  
as the farm is being sold, and the car's have been there for some  
time... etc....anyway, he had an offer for both cars for $800 and  
that the v8 runs has 200+K miles and the hydraulic pump is seized.   
Anyway, I made an offer, and am waiting to hear from a friend if he  
want's the '89 90.  Just wondering, since my whole hydraulic system  
is destined to get removed when I do the TB soon, is it the same pump? 
( foolishly thinking of stuffing mine in for the roadtrip, instead of  
2 130 mile each way diesel towing projects.......For that matter, do  
I even want a 93 4.2 as a parts car for my 90 3.6....or is there a  
good deal of overlap.  I'm planning on getting it regardless to keep  
it within the tribe as it were....I got my nice newer 4 stroke kicker  
motor stolen off my boat on my birthday 2 weeks ago($1700) and my  
homeowners won't cover it, and the last thing I need right now is to  
buy another german hole in the bank, but I'm confident, I don't need  
to explain the "must have it" to any of you......I'll keep you  
posted...Tom
