After you sold that car to whoever you sold it to they beat it up pretty bad. Not to mention my friend who bought it off the people you sold it to beat it up as well. I was over his house what seemed like every weekend to fix something!
 Now it's going to be religated to a parts whore cause it's way to far gone to bring back to life.
 But the drive train will make one 92 Blk/Blk V8 Auto very happy ;-)

Swapping the 4.2 from your 93 into your 5sp would prolly be up to you. But I can say that I have done two of these swaps & the owners love them. But I did them cause there motors were well past repair.... so why not put a 4.2 lump in.

 As far as the 16's you have.... I have a set of Urs4 16x8 fuchs & I run 225/50's on them.
