That is a super deal. The engine alone is worth $500 if it runs. You can get new plastic's yet for them. Headlights are out there just a little harder to find.

Yes, easy to repaint but paint doesn't stick too well to the plastics.

Better to strip and polish them if they're not cracked.

Please, DO Not paint the plastics, just take some time cleaning and polishing them. There are a # of threads on how to do it. There are lots of knowlegable people on here that can lend advice.
