Back in 99 I was driving around in a 76 Eldorado convertible with the 500 in it. I had a guy want to buy the car from me for the engine, said it was for a dragster. Wanted to pay me about $1500. The car was worth more than that so I sent him packing.

Right now on eBay I just saw a full 500 asking $1699 and a core bare block asking $350. Also a bunch of rebuild kits for the 500.

I wouldn't write that engine off so quickly.
