At that price, I would go for it. The majority of your time will be spent disassembling buss connectors and testing cell banks. All this is DC - and safe.
There are a lot of people that are here on this site that can help you no matter what the direction you go.
Sounds like a FUN project and I think you are getting over your cold . . . .
No matter what, you are going to need a large multi kW inverter to convert that stored DC to 240 V, 60 Hz AC. But these are getting downright cheap.
I sure like the flexibility of using the already existing 240 V Chevy charging system already on board. In that case, little disassembly is required.
What do you know about this battery pack - was the Volt accident totaled and someone is parting it out?
