1989 Vert 5spd with seized engine

Hey guys
this car sat a lot. Tried to turn it over and saw some smoke come from the hood. I assume it was the starter burning a bit. Flatbed to mechanics shop and he tried a few things including wrench, pushing backwards, MMOil etc... nothing.

He said that a guy came by and was interested in it, even knowing the engine is a rebuild/replace. I have no idea what it's worth as a roller or if I should look for a new engine.

Any insight on value as is? 130k original, top works but has some small tears, body has work done and a lil thst on kickers, blue leather... rims are the only thing not original. Everything else is pretty much there. Few cracked bezels on dash like normal.

thanks
Nick
