Only if you want to blow forty grand for labor and end up with a car
less reliable than a yugo pulled from the bottom of a lake.

Hey, I did not say you should disassemble ECU to single
transistor and chips - but you could take off the wheels,
battery, sits, remove brake pads and other small things
and ship this incomplete body as a "replacement car body" :-)
In a second box you will have 4 wheels and battery + brake pads.
