WTB INEXPENSIVE N*/Aurora parts car/drivetrain

I need a super econo priced Northstar or Aurora powered car.

I had one lined up that was "mine for the taking", the guy left out the fact that he gave the car to someone else last month.

Price and proximity are an object.

What have you seen?

there was one in Belmont for $200...

edit: can't find it,

but $300 for a 4.9 http://grandrapids.craigslist.org/for/1020841613.html

What's "super econo" mean to you...$$$? They are showing up in U-Pulls around here, which means they should be plentiful out there since Caddies are way more common there. Are you looking for the whole powertrain+drivetrain (hubs, axles, trans, wiring, etc.) or just the engine? I'll keep my eyes peeled, I am looking for good deals on N* stuff all the time and because I've got a lot of buddies out there I happen upon deals out there fairly regularly.

Would you prefer a driver for more $$$ (to ensure it's not a head gasket) or are you open to dead ones? If you don't mind fixing the head gasket (or would prefer to if you're some kind of masochist) you can get whole cars for pretty durned cheap.

I don't mind the head gasket cars. As long as they have not ruined the bearings they are fine and a bottle or two of sodium silicate cures em good ;)

There's an Aurora at the Holland LKQ U-pull yard.

1995 deville, $1200. 1995's had the Northstar, right? http://toledo.craigslist.org/cto/1017548038.html

1995 Aurora, $600, unknown engine issue.

1995 Aurora with a "bad motor" which could mean a lot of things to a lot of people. But it's $350 http://detroit.craigslist.org/cto/1034409416.html

1998 Aurora with trans leak, $900. http://detroit.craigslist.org/cto/1033478745.html

1996 Aurora, random electrical problems. $800. http://detroit.craigslist.org/cto/1027951154.html

I am headed to the Kalamazoo LKQ tommorow, I will keep an eye out.

I have 2 sets of heads (1 set is nicely ported) and an intake with injectors...

willing to sell CHEAP!
