Need help TN/Ky border Clarksville/Ft. Campbell!

Is there anyone near me that might be willing to help me get this TL running? Is about 85% done. BOught this 97 with two complete extra engines. THe good engine that is in it is a 99. I just need help buttoning everything up. Having two extra engines, which are in pieces. leaves me with crap loads of parts, nuts and bolts. I havent a clue what i am looking at or looking for to get the last 10-15 percent back together.
It isnt that i am not mechanically inclined, but i have never really messed with anything like this. And i didnt take it apart so you know how that goes. Trying to figure out what is what and what goes where. I do have the complete factory service manual.
I really dont know what i could pay, but i do have two extra engines, the original did spin a crank bearing. BUt i am sure one could be put together out of the two, if someone was wanting to build one. Or just have extra parts, would be willing to do some trading of my stuff for a little help and time.
Maybe make a weekend of it. Ive got an extra bedroom and a drag strip about 3 miles from my house!!!

ANyone, someone please help. Email or call is fine with me. 931-220-1980

Darn, way too far away to help. But here's a free bump to the top. If you're unlucky with a search for help, then get good with a digital camera and a photobucket account or similar, make individual posts with pics as you hit a roadblock, and I'm sure you'll get the best virtual help around. If you're unsure of a part name or something, Ron Ayers and others have digital fiche online that you can link to, you can use that to define a particular part with certainty so we all know what exactly you're talking about. Good luck from a fellow '97 owner.

+1 on posting up lots of pics of any probs.. There are more than a few people on here that know these things inside out.
