Because even if you have all the parts it wont just bolt up. You will have to do a lot of custom work for it to look good. Just sell the 91 and 96 and buy a 95+

The other aspects aside, the panel lines would not match up. Not a project to undertake IMO. Maybe dropping in the VVTi motor and trans from a 98+ would be fun.
