Need a new motor for the work ute and would prefer to buy from a wrecker. Anyone know the cheapest wrecker for a complete BA NA motor?

If my daily driver wasn't a turbocharged 5.7 litre V8, I'd consider picking it up with a box trailer. How much do you want for it and how complete is it?

not a problem man its just sitting at my parents with a tarp over it.
it has intake manifold and exhaust manifold from memory (i no it has intake exhaust im not so sure) it has no injectors tho.
its a clean motor with no oil leaks around it really i was going to use it/build it up but dont have the time/money to.
i got it for $50 so thats all im after for it.
i got it through work.
just pm me if u want it and ill hold it for u.
