Unfortunately they usually want too much, becuase they get more out of the car parting it out then someone would be willing too pay for the whole car. I try too get them from people before they sell them too the yards. I mean if their best offer it 100-200 from a yard, offer them 300 or so.
wo wo wo, wo wo. now i'm pretty fucking drunk right now, but did I read that right? its around $300 bucks for a perfect body, but messed engine? If thats the case, how the hell can I get one to canada?
*edit*
Now that I'm much more coherent, I now understand what you said. How much would a yard want for one do you think? I wonder how much of a pain it is to bring it over the border.
a trailer and about a weeks time(gas money and money for food helps to).

If anyone hears where to find a non metal hood that dosent look like it was designed to suck up birds and small children (I dont care for the ram air hood available) let me know!
Like I say....I'm still thinking about the gen3 s/c 3800 also. the fab work would be easy for me...and I could leave it pretty much stock and still be fast enough to amuse me. I'll keep in touch and let you know what I decide and how it goes!
I've seen a few Feiro's with the 3800 s/c swap and there stupid fast....so I'm thinking a gen2 j body should still be quick. Plenty of tourque steer I'm sure.....but I think I can deal with that.
If you have everything installed squarely and keep the torque below 300ft lbs torque steer probably wont give you any trouble. The 5 speed trans in the V6's have equal length axels to prevent torque steer.
