Looking for a Quad 4 car in East Texas

Hello guys, I'm new to this forum and am looking into building my next hot rod with a Quad 4 engine, just to be different. I live in east Texas, and would love to find one a w-41 190 hp quad 4 with a five speed. The ideal donor would be a totaled or wrecked 1989-1993 car with a good engine. I want to pull the needed wiring along with the engine. Thanks for any leads you may have.

...also, still have the fuel rail and hose with injectors off that 2000 70K engine and the coil pack with Quad aluminum cover if you need it.

Thanks. I'd like to get one of the 89-93 models if I can for adaptability reasons.

I laugh at you for being so stupid. You obviously know nothing about the quad 4.

Here is a great example of a roadster with a quad 4. Its making 375hp http://www.hotautoweb.com/images20/Img_2959.jpg

Great picture of a great rod!! I'm thinking of a roadster pickup with a 4 banger. I think the Quad 4 would look enough like an old Offy to cause confusion.

Yes, most people that put them in some type of street rod do it in an attempt to look the like old offenhuaser (sp?)
