Yep, at the very least I can get the old cv axle out and put the new one in, I have the new rotor as well so no more funky feeling petal once its all back together. Then come next pay check she'll get a proper tune up with new plugs and wires, something this car has never seen before.

Called all the junkyards and the only one that has one sadly is an hour drive away and the only other one that I know of that would have a good one will be closed by the time I get off my part time job tomorrow so I'm just gonna order a new one when i get off work at noon tomorrow I think. Tonight since it is raining the most I may do is get the new boot on my new to me used cv axle and let the car run for a few to warm up and flow all its juices around.

Never worth the drive half the time, unless my part time boss just so happens to send me out that way to pick something up tommrow when I do a little work for him I'll just buy a new one or a rebuild kit and get it all done, still debating on the two, Its in good shape with no pitting from what I can tell just a screwed up square cut seal and dust boot.
