    It could be done.

    Engine, transmission, wire harness, pcm, body control module, likely interior wiring, maybe the brake booster and abs module and likely tons of more stuff.

    I'd get it just for the interior and other parts... The rest you could easily sell off and then junk the body.

    The spoiler still looks intact as well, so there's a bonus.

    If you're talking drivetrain swap into an 06 gt, it's alot of work, but it's not impossible...

    It would be more like swapping the body. Strip the GT down to the shell then replace with everything from the GXP.

    It looks like the seats are cloth. I think I have seen one GXP that had cloth so its possible. They might have swapped some parts out already. Just be aware. The interior looks rough so be prepared for that too.

    The shiny bits look intact, that and maybe some of the wiring harnesses for the hud and such. If you want the tap-shift and don't already have it, it's practically the entire wiring harness. Lol

    I meant even the non-wrecked parts.

    Looks like nothing was maintained.
