Default question...you think it's worth it?

looked at a car yestuday for parts...
1990 Audi 90 with NG motor and auto trans(bad trans actually sitting on the rear seat)
has rear discs and 228,000 kilometers on the engine, has had some new parts within the last two years but hasn't seen the road in one.
guy wants $725cdn(about $600us)for it

body is relatively rust free and interior looks in good shape....

would it be worth while picking it up as a parts car and swaping my KX engine for teh NG one?
and rear discs as well?...I assume I would need to replace rotors and pads and rebuild the rear calipers etc....
any other interest in any parts off the car?

Default best prices....

motor $400
rear suspension $250
that would be $650 plus tax for just those parts...
if anyone wanted some parts off it other then motor and rear suspension stuff...it might make it worth it.

Yep, you could part out the rest of the car to make some of your $$ back
