Guy here has a 93 4 cyl and i might trade him my set of almost perfect pony wheels and tires for the motor only. The motor he claims only has like 30xxx original miles. Do you think i should do it? peace

no way. a decent set of treads by themselves are worth more than an engine. I have seen decent ponies sell for more than I paid for my entiore car. keep the rims and offer him $150 for the engine.

If the wheels have good tires you could get around $400 for them. I paid $200 for mine with tires that needed to be replaced.

You should easily go twice that with proper maintenence. That would mean another 14+ years given the car's age and mileage.

In that case, suggest that he ties the engine to himself and jumps into deep water.....
