What happened to the rest of the car? You only have the engine?
Finding a buyer that needs it is the first hurdle, as well as shipping it. Then as the old saying goes; it's only worth what someone is willing to pay.

If the rebuilder was a well known shop that helps.
How complete is the engine? Is it a long-block or does it have; the timing cover, crank pulley, intake, carburetor, distributor, exhaust manifolds, oil pan, air cleaner... etc.
The relative worth changes as more of the correct T-Bird specific parts in that list are included or missing.

What are the prefix letters in the '6015' engine block casting number just above the oil filter?
Is the rear flange of the crankshaft visible or does it have a flexplate / flywheel on it?
