If anyone is interested there's a 505 with a 2.2 litre engine in it, at Pick n' Payless wreckers in Tatersall Rd Blacktown (west Sydney). The price of 4 cylinder injected engines there is supposed to be $280, but this could probably be knocked down.
I'm not sure if any water has got in the engine (car has no bonnet), but the hose from the throttle body to the airflow meter is still attached, so I think the engine would have been reasonably well sealed against the rain.
This 505 has an auto gearbox.
I'm not sure how much longer this car will be there, because it has been there for a while and is probably due to go to the crusher soon.
There's also a Fuego with the engine still in it, close to the 505.
There used to be quite a few Fuegos there, but not anymore. 504's, R12's and R16's also used to be common there, but now they have almost all gone to the crusher.
Regards,
Dave
