It looks to be a rebuildable motor. The only thing that is an easy fix is to see if the commutators have worn down completely and this is causing the sparks. Swapping out the comms isn't too difficult. Otherwise it's probably not worth it as these brushed crawler motors aren't too expensive and last a long time.

Although it may be tempting to repair it, my advice is to buy a new one as you don';t know what would it do to your battery.
