Is this a good donar car?

I found this today, what you think? (I mean DONOR BTW.. LOL)

1999 camaro *mechanics special* - $2000



Got a 1999 3.8 camaro up for sale. Body has 18*,*** miles on it. Motor
went out back in august, got a carfax certified used engine from
Concord Dismantlers with 6,*** miles on it (paid $1,900). Finally got
it installed and i just cant get it running. Car cranks but doesnt
fire. Really im just tired of messing with it. Car has SS hood and
wing and flows... new clutch about 10,000 miles ago and fuel pump.

Great buy for a Mech that can get this thing back on the road or is
someone wants to do a LS1 swap. Car has OEM powder coated satin black
C6 rims. white body grey cloth interior.

$2,000 o.b.o. with C6 rims... $1,500 o.b.o. without rims and bring your own!

What do you expect to take out of it for use in a 3rd gen?

(If you decide to buy it for an LS1 swap, and need an LS1 cradle. . .)
