Should I Get a Bobcat

Someone has offered me an older (late 70's) supposedly well maintained M610 Bobcat for about $2k.

The air cooled (gas) Wisconsin engine finally let go. The guy has two 'parts engines', from which I would make one decent engine.

So I would need to rebuild and install the engine. I was able to do a 2.7 engine, a 915 and a G50. I can do the work.

I end up with a good snow plow/garden tool, or I flip it for $4-5k.

I do not need one. I do want one.

What does the brain-trust here say? Worth it, or am I crazy taking this on?
