Screw the 302...IF I were to pick it up to replace the white one, it would be getting the same engine/trans combo that it is getting.

(The white one has a 302 in it...and it's not staying in the car....)

Michael-
It's just not worth the hassle of a 2000+ mile transport.  I'm really just in need of body parts, and I can't get anyone who has one of these things to let me get parts off them...

Ductape...is that a black one?  I'm sure I've seen that one.
