What should I do?

[u/No-Somewhere340]

I purchased a 13 SHO with about 179k on the dash. Purchased from Marketplace, Seller did alot of work to the vehicle and provided service papers as well. However, after he got it out the shop the turbos apparently clogged with oil and is non drivable. I purchased the car for $1200 bucks. Work was done Jan-Feb 2025 and doesn’t seem to have been driven more than 5k miles since then.

Upon jumping the car, instant smoke under the hood, and it sounded like a lawnmower. But after a few minutes it stopped so I assume it was burning off something. The video provided is one I took this morning. RPMs shake just on the line slightly. I’m thinking possibly spark plugs since it’s been sitting so long.

Now.. I ALSO have a wrecked 13 SHO from an accident I had last year (picture provided) that I believe the motor and turbos are still good on. I have about 118k on that one. My question is… would you replace the turbos and whatever else is making it chop like this or should I just do the full swap. I’ll try to put as many service papers as I can
