    Depends what the cost is. If you bought a 20k car for 10k and changed the battery, then it’s fine. People do buy cars with engines on their way out to swap them to better ones.

      This is a suckers bet. Every time I have bought a car that “only needs” something, it turns out that it needs a fuckton of other things. I’m just amazed how some people can wear a car down to a nub before something major goes bad.

      The only time I came out ahead doing this was a car I bought strictly to part out.
