If you can snatch that quick, the engines alone sell for 3-600 :lol:

Sunstrip suits the nicely :) is an interior or exterior one?
If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway :thumbs:

Even if you kept the engine, you'll get 100(ish) scrap for the body, 50-80 for the interior, the scuttle is worth 25 clocks are 10-20 and sell a couple other things off it and you've got a free engine and tigra front end
