This may not qualify, but I bought a used 1940 engine for my truck.
Cleaned and painted everything in my garage. Like others, got pounds of crap out of the water jackets. All new gaskets. Got it running a couple years ago.
I have about $1000 in it including the water pumps and coil rebuild, but not including the Reds headers.

If I blow it up I'll probably do another used engine freshen-up.
