People do buy cars with engines on their way out to swap them to better ones.

This is a suckers bet. Every time I have bought a car that "only needs" something, it turns out that it needs a fuckton of other things. I'm just amazed how some people can wear a car down to a nub before something major goes bad.

The only time I came out ahead doing this was a car I bought strictly to part out.
