I don't know what "nothing is straight" means, plus the tape holding it together, but it sounds like you have some work to do on the plane first, otherwise just putting a motor on it will be a waste. You might want to strip the covering so you can fix it properly and then use the frame to practice learning to cover.

Also, you need to weigh the plane. If it's heavy it might not be worth fixing.
