I've been asked about selling my '85 1.9 engine for a rebuildable core. The
car has 86k actual miles, but this engine is locked because the previous
owners drove it 50 miles with the oil light on. Everything about the case
and heads seems fine, and it's clean on the outside.

What's it worth? I'm not in the parts business, and I just yesterday decided
to swap rather than rebuild. Any opinions would be appreciated.
