Default Old Fosgate Power 650 Amplifier : Fix, Sell, or Discard

My brother in law recently gave me his Fosgate Power 650. Just 2
years ago it was pounding four 8" bazookas in his Mustang. I never
thought 4 small bazookas could feel so good.

Anyway, the amp changed hands a couple of times. Apparently,
something happened to it during another install and one of the
intermittent owners opened it up and attempted to fix it.

It was given to me with the heatsink detached. I looked at the
circuit board and didn't see anything broken or missing. I noticed
all of the internal fuses were still intact.

What should I do with this beast? I found a site called Spectronics
that does repair on high end amps. They have a flat rate of $50 labor
plus parts then add shipping. Would it be wise to send it out for
repair?

Is there a market for an Old School Fosgate amp needing repair?

Is it even worth the effort to fix or sell?

Thanks,

Brooke
