What the others said. The motor installed is an air start (needs a compressed air source like a scuba bottle to start) Sophia that hasn't been made in at least 25 years. Bearings are about the only thing on a turbine that are somewhat generic and generally available from someone other than the manufacturer. The rest of the parts will be limited to what can be repurposed from other makes, which wont be much, so it's basically worthless. You don't know much about the airframe manufacturer or the rest of the setup. Most of the air and fuel lines will likely have to be replaced. With that said you might be able to get $1,500.
