Thank you for the input. However I failed to mention that the frame of the Boston car looks like a total rust pit. The struts, rack & pinion and other suspension components look and drive very well. I think financially I might be better off to swap the struts and other suspension components to the vegas car as well as swap the interior. The Boston car only has 78K on it where the Vegas car has 128K but when I did the normal engine checks on the Boston car, the air filter was so clogged I'm surprised it ran at all. On the other hand the Vegas car may have 50K more miles but it runs great and I have years of documented maintenance. My deduction...the person whom owed the Boston car didn't give a s*** about maintaining it, even though the interior is in great shape. The Vegas car body and frame are completely rust free, its suspension and interior are completely wasted. I've come to the realization that there is no way to save both cars but I think that I need to use the frame and body of the Vegas car and potentially the engine/transmission too? Additionally, I have a spare VG30E engine that I'm rebuilding that I may install in the winner...BUT, I would love to install a different engine model that has more balls? And yes, I'll snap some photos of the cars this weekend and post. Again, thank you for the input.
