Default got me another stang

what do you all think it a 1993 lx 4 cyl the motor is smoking pretty badly, i plan on swapping the motor from my convertible to this one, i only paid 450 for it. The car feels like it has no power so im assuming its the timing thats off and causing the smoke heres a pic a of car i know its a little big

450 isn't bad for it. (I bought a 2.3 Notch and drove it for a year before I gave it to my little bro and bought my Focus. Never had any problems with it. Paid 275$)

the reason i was thinking of swapping the motor from the vert is because recently like a month ago i crashed it, i hydro planed into a pole, the pole hit between the front bumper and the front of tire and bent some of the frame part where fender goes, so i had got me another fender and front bumper and a big *** hammer and hit the frame back and installed fender and bumper the lines werent perfect but it was on, then yesterday while going to work, one of my tires decides to come apart (cause in crash i messed up one of my pony rims so i replaced it with a black rim and a cheap tire) and the thread slapped the back of the car and bent it, so i guess i gave up on the car cause i know to fix and align and paint its going to cost me alot and i also have some suspension problems i guess when i hit the curb i bent the front control arm so its kinda pushed back, So what i decided to do is park the vert fix the other stang with the 4 cyl for work and save up some money to fix teh vert and when its done ill find me another V8 engine to put on the silver one and ill have me two 5.0's

I know your pain. I hydroplaned when some stupid kids pulled out infront of me... i wrecked my baby. Goodluck with swapping it over. Looks to be in good shape for 450.

I almost bought a mustang when i was working at crawford buick in el paso texas, but i decided to fly home to see my friend while he was on leave from the army. Ended up not going back like planned... there are some clean fox shells around there.
