Default 1999 C70 convertible convert newbie

I am looking at a 99 C70 convert. The body of the car is in great shape and the leather shows a little wear. The last owner destroyed the engine and they only want 975 dollars for the whole car. If I can find an engine at a decent price would this be a good car to purchase? How hard is it to take the engine out of the car and replace it? I found a 99 2.3T v70 engine.

I am pretty mechanically inclined just wondering the time involved. It doesn't look all that difficult

Thanks

Hi Rusty, welcome to the forum.

They are not bad on engine swaps. Did you get the car?
