[DML] Re: Take my engine...please!

["Gus Schlachter" <gus@xxxx>]

The engine's value would depend on it's condition, and also on it's
intended use. It's the second variable that I can't control, which is
why I raised the question. I'll put Marc down for one "Not To Fix." 
Maybe I should start a poll. :-)

I am opting for a new engine instead of modifying my own because 
a)I seek instant gratification and have no patience, 
b)I'm thrilled at the idea of having a brand-bew engine, and 
c)I have a credit card and no self-restraint.

If I can't find a good home for the old motor, I guess I'll start
shopping for a motorless Delorean instead.
