Exclamation Update On Pika-chu!!!!!!!!!!!

Last night I happened across an abandonded 2nd gen near my house. So being the curious person I am I popped the hood and guess what was under it? THE ENGINE!!!
With all the excitement I got hungry and went into the pizza shop and guess what? THE OWNER OF THE PIZZA SHOP OWNS THE DAMN CAR!!!!! He told me that he saw me lookin at the car and that if I Wanted to buy it.... He couldnt find a buyer (so he tore out the VIN and left it in the street to be picked apart) It has NO interior or seats BUT it has the engine (which runs) and the ECU and thats what I need. So this all translates to me getting a 13B into my baby!!!!
Since Im buying the entire car off the guy and I only want the engine I'll sell off the rest of the car to anyone interested.
Here a pic of it is in the thread titled FOR SALE...
COMING SOON PIKA2!!!!!!!

Maybe he needs to pull a plug wire while the engine is running. I'm sure it'd produce a sensation similar to when Pikachu uses its electric attacks.
