307 engine

This was the original engine in my first truck. It ran a lot of miles before I swapped a 350 crate engine into my '73 square body and so on. I rebuilt the 307 for a car project and the car is gone and I still have the engine on my garage floor. It was always reliable to start instantly and I really only had problems until I got stuck in heavy traffic and the engine started running hot and blew off a radiator hose. After that is started using a quart of oil every 500 miles or so. Now this engine was bored .030 over and it's a 3970020 block. Since it was a truck engine it has the 1.94/ 1.50 valve size heads. Is there a desire for this engine anywhere? I hate to scrap it since I put a lot of good parts in it when I rebuilt it.
