lol i was waiting for that lol
these cars are a wiring hellstorm like you couldnt imagin..i had an 89 eldorado with that 4.5 and yeah, its also pretty slow, trying to work on them is a joke...before that i had never heard of "digital Fuel injection" my air suspension never worked really, but it worked well enough to drive i guess. Before i got the car it had been compleatly re-wired 3 times by Gm dealerships and still constantly blew fuses
unless it's almost free keep looking.... The price of a motor, the nickel and dime stuff, and the time to swap the motor all seem like a waste because the car isn't really worth anything IMO.
You can find a running one in gc for about a grand and that seems like a better route.
I'd pass, not worth the hassle.
How many steps to heaven, Doc?
...Ah, metaphysics.
Does anybody know any laws that i can use to take an abondoned car off an abandoned farmstead?? or whatever I do is it still illegal?

That's still stealing....
Find out who owns the property and ask if the car is for sale. Find out from neighbors or get the address of the property and go to the city or county courthouse and they should be able to give you the contact info of the property owners. If the city or a bank(foreclosed home) owns the property they might just give you the car to get it off the property.
