From the auction listing...
Remarks: The engines for this aircraft are not included in this sale. An inspection of the airframe is being scheduled with interested parties, likely within the next 45 days. Please contact Dan Akers at 404-249-1894 or at daniel.akers@chartisinsurance.com should you wish to attend the inspection or view the airframe records. The aircraft was treated with a corrosion inhibitor in the Summer of 2009.

I am sure that we will find out how much it sells for once the auction closes.

Wow, they don't sell the most prized part of the plane? What a waste of time!

they're selling it for scrap, to recoup some of the insurance money paid to the airline. all the electonics have been stripped to be recondition and reused.
