grandfathers old engine
It depends on the shape.
How long has it been sitting?
Does it leak oil or burn it?
Has it been repainted?
Does it run? Is it 100% complete?
Is the clutch good? Clutch release bearing?
Is the tranny still good, does it leak?
Is the carb there/been rebuilt?
Is the block cracked anywhere or leaking coolant?
There is a lot of stuff that can hurt or help the price. I've seen seized/not running flattys sell for $20. I've also seen rebuilt ones, painted and restored, go for just under $800.
