Depends upon where you live. If you're in the rustbelt, and are 
talking about cars that have been exposed to salt. Well yeah, they're 
not gonna be worth much. A couple hundred dollars sounds normal to me.

However, you get something like that out in Los Angeles, and assuming 
they're in the condition described, with no rust issues. A car like 
that would fetch at least a couple thousand dollars to someone who 
wants to customize a virgin vehicle. Especially some ghetto cruiser 
like an Olds Cutlass.

My advice to you: If you've got the original engine, don't swap it. 
Just throw the 350 in as an extra. That way, it looks like you're 
selling an original car, with a free gift, and it means less work to 
you.
