1987 Mercury Marquis

Hey all,
Is there anything usable or of any value on an '87 Mercury Marquis for our Fox cars?  Somebody here at work has one for sale with a blown motor, and they're almost giving it away.  It's got a clear title.  I have to assume it's got an SO 5.0, right?  What about the tranny, an AOD?  I'd just like to know if it's worth picking up for almost nothing.  If I don't, it's gonna end up being a derby car.  Thanks for any info.

yeah, trans. will be the AOD, and some of the engine stuff will work in a 'Bird/Coug..not really sure on what exactly, my understanding is that inlet on the upper is opposite, but I may be wrong...or is 87 a CFI setup on the Panther chassis cars??

Anywho, i know the trans is an AOD, cause i pulled one from an 88 C-V..
