seat is 98+ I think, brand new either way. Belts on the floor are tan pre 98. So the center belt works since it attaches to the pre-98 buckle. But the ones on the pillar are stock 2001 so they don't fit into the pre-98 buckles. Idk what year the panels are but I found pics of them:
You can't tell they're tan unless you look close at edges and the carpet (lol silver carpet) areas. But look to the right. You can see part of the door there, the panel isn't long enough. What's odd is that the design on the panel matches the front: So they changed the size at some point but didn't change the pattern on the door if that makes sense. The size doesn't really bother me, I just want them to be grey. That little gap isn't a big deal.

thats like a 50 dollar fix juan just need the lower buckels and different rear panels. yes the pre 98 had shorter rear than 98 and newer. that is also pi rear seat not a regular cv. best thing is to find a regular cv/street appearance car and pull panels lowe belts and seat out. prob could about even trade the shit. and 98 up would work. also that is pi door panels in back the regular ones had a little more things done to it. if was closer would buy your cv way it sets and fix it.

Honestly, I think that's it. Besides the Engine, none of it is vital and besides the engine/paint is is all easy/cheap to take care of. I'm hoping I can find a shop with a decent price to swap the motor because I'd definitely like to keep it.

The place I go to is actually decent priced for most things. I'm thinking they just don't do engine swaps normally so they are overcharging for it. Will call around. Idk who the hell works on the cop cars here, I don't know any policez.

look for more of the custom shops too imo. some that might actually have done ls into whatever swaps. a ford engine swap should (hopefully) be a little cheaper compared to a full blown custom swap

Some salvage yards do engine swaps. Call a taxi cab company. They have all the cheap CV crap and connections.

Called a couple places. First one said $5-6000 for reman + labor. The labor is $2000-2100. fts
Second place said labor is $600-700, parts are $150-400 depending on what they reuse, what hoses/belts/etc are needed. Motors either come from car-part.com for used or Jasper Engine's for rebuilds. Or I can bring my own. Idk, I'm afriad of buying a used motor for $500, paying $1000 to install it, and then the motor gives me trouble because it isn't any good. There's no warranty on that shit and I don't have money to waste. I also don't have a garage to work on it if it acts up. Nawmeenz? idk

most places give you a 90 day warranty.
logically you can think of it this way 1000-1500 and if it fucks up you have 30-90 day warrantry. or you can spend 3-5k on a car and it can fuck up with 60k miles in 90 days.........

I'd have to do it in a garage on the other side of town and I'd probably fuck something up (see intake manifold swap).
Found a motor in Billerica, MA. $450, 96k mi http://www.usejack.com/index.php idk what shipping on a damned engine would be though
