If I take off the intake manifold to see how much the mice liked my wires do I need to buy a new gasket?

Rather than ATF in the cylinders I've heard of alot of people putting diesel in the cylinders. By the looks of that MAF a LOT of **** was allowed to pass into the engine due to a poor air filter. That really kills engines right?

As far as the body I can pretty much spray the whole thing for free. I have very good ties with a body shop. I'm not too worried about that becides the time investment, which I know will be HUGE. Another buddy of mine works at a shop and he can steal me all the hose/lines I need. So that's also no cost. What is going to cost is I need new rear calipers.

I called a few junk yards around here and they said they would pay $200 on the car. 6 months ago it was worth $100 in scrap so I figure I dont have a ton to lose. If I buy a starter, air filter, plugs, fuel filter, and a gallon of fuel that set me back maybe $100 and I could recover like 50 on ebay. I dont see it as a very expensive project so far until I see that it runs.
