Well, I think I might have found a replacement. I was talking with my father in law this weekend. We know a guy from church whose car is on its last leg, its an early 2000s Civic. The head gasket is gone and he has been dumping in water to get around for the past month. My father in law wants to give him his old Taurus, but that needs some suspension work. So, we're going to fix that up and give it to him in trade for the Civic. My father in law was just going to scrap it. So, I said I'd give him scrap value for it and drop a new engine in it. I don't know the specifics of the car yet. I just know its a silver Civic similar to the one below:
