Sounds like a good deal if you can swap that other engine in it, pull all the good bits off the one that had the fire and knacker it.  Pull the top-end good parts off the locked engine too so you have spares. Some work but seems like you might have a nice car out of it. --FT On 9/15/19 6:13 P

I think the seat backs unbolt from the center pivot where they join, and then just lift out. From there, getting the carpet out should be straightforward.
