My 2 cents: You have two (or more) options. Firstly, you can maximize your
selling price, but not necessarily your net return, by restoring it to
stock, including a replacement engine. Or secondly, make it run, as is, and
sell it as a 'driver' or 'restoration candidate' on Bring-a-Trailer. Just
don't misrepresent it - which of course you wouldn't do.
