Engineless 1986 Convertible - What I'll do...

I'll clean and polish the whole car as much as needed, will fit a new hood and then swap or sell the Convertible for an another one with engine and Automatic transmission.
I'm thinking that's there too much hassle getting them back on the road: converting from manual to automatic. Fitting a new (used) engine, fitting a new exhaust and so on. The sum of the parts added with the purchase price of the Convertible will be on the higher side. Around € 13,000.00. I can buy a Convertible for much less in Switzerland or Germany. With drivetrain in.
All my neighbours are jealous about the Convertible, feeling the people love the Saab Conv. :-)
It's very sad for me, but I don't like to waste money. Was a nice chance getting a Convertible for the upcoming summer. But was only a chance - I can't proper deal with.
I've been told by a Saab Dealer that all European Convertibles are with the Turbo engine equipped. Is this true? If so I need to make a Test Drive in a healty Turbo Saab before I'll buy a Turbo Saab. And I need to talk to owners who are driving the Turbo longer time.
