If you can afford it and are easily able to sore it, and the price is right, go for it.
Advertise on here that you are willing to sell parts which will recoup some of your cost as well as being a big help to others.
It has worked well for some people in here just recently.
Better you have it than a wrecker when it comes to ease of access and price.

apart from the final drive unit the only other parts most people will want is plastic, I know I have all the bits taking up space.
my suggestion is to save your $ for more important farkles.
