Wait, there are people who do this for you? That doesnt sound like a bad deal to me if its going to be running when it leaves. This is a 6 volt car, and if he's getting a 12 volt conversion, thats a good deal. Along with the mounts, The tranny, the fuel lines, radiator, ect. If their just dropping it in, thats a bit steep. If their hooking it up, then its a good deal
