It is worth the core charge on a rebuilt motor at your local auto store.

i'd pull the heads off it and plant it out in the garden. fill it with dirt and plant flowers in the holes. you could even plant the heads too, lots of holes for marigolds, petunias, daisies...seriously though, not much. what's wrong with it, why don't it run?

Come on man we are just funing with you. You do know that it is well after beer thirty. Really what do you want to do with it? You wanting to sell It, overhaul It, trade it or what. Can't tell ya what it is worth if ya don't give us more info. Is it a core? Inquiring minds need to know. OK so it isn't running. Why not?

It was in a parts truck I bought, and i was trying to decide if I
should keep or sell.

I was told it ran fine when the truck was parked 2 years ago.
When I pulled the valve covers and the intake manifold off, it
all looked good. But I know 2 years is a long time for a moter
to sit. The only reason i have not tryed getting it to run is the
carb is gone and the holes in the manifold plugged.



Yall aint bothering me a bit, I giv as good as i get, and know it
is just in good fun.

It might run good enough for someone who is desperate for a running motor, or while they rebuild another motor. It might be a good core for someone who wants to build a fresh motor, but can't tear down an existing motor.

The most that I would give for it would be a couple of hundred, but I don't want it. Unless it is running, it is only worth the core value.

You should get the casting #s and date code.
