I'd buy that for $500.  Worth it for all the parts, might not even be a 
huge issue, most likely wiring or throttle actuators or some electrical 
stuff.  The engines are solid and once the other stuff is sorted they 
are not too bad, but still somewhat "exotic."

I wonder what the “engins” work is? Looks like the console is disassembled as

Avoid. No one wants someone else’s basket case.
