    good price?Anywhere from free to a few thousand,depending on condition.I got one for $1800 running & driving just so I could sell the 6 out & render it non running while I freshen my v8,another I traded for(cash value about $400)w/a stuck 6,little rougher but still pretty solid.Just depends how good of a car you want to start with.
