Default Irvine .53 price?

Here's what my cousin's friend says about it. (and I trust the source entirely) "I got the .53 new from England for around $120. It has 2, maybe 3 gallons of fuel through it so it's like new. It's been hangin from the ceiling for a while, but plenty of after run oil in it."
He said he'll take $75 for it. Would this be a good choice for the SIG Somethin' Extra I plan to build? He had it in an Edge profile plane 3D'ing it and stuff. He'd sell me the whole plane with servos and receiver, but that's not my first priority, or what I want to spend my little amount of money on right now. Let me know what you think about the price, and please tell me about the engine. All I've heard about it is that it's a good one. Thanks!

that is the perfect engine for an SE, and a great price. I got mine from just engines for about $120, but I"m guessing they are significantly higher now with the horrible dollar rate...

That's the engine I got for my SSE. From what I gather, this is the perfect match for the SE.

Here is a U.S. add for the motor at $144: http://www.goldenstaterc.com/Irvine.htm this includes a std muffler. I'd say you're getting a good deal. No shipping charges either and already broken in. What's not to like?
