Default What to do?

I sadly crashed my v70 t5 on the weekend.
It still drives but the body is beyond repair.
It's a 1999 auto with the fly by wire throttle and low mileage.

What should I do with it?

Sell the full running car, but as I understand it the fly by wire engines are undesirable for tuning/engine swaps?

Or do I take my new ETM and battery off and then weight it in?

I also own a base model 1998 v70 with cable throttle that has a bad ignition barrel could I swap them without issue?
