I seem to be the last person to ask about prices, my ideas are always 
way off everyone elses (high and/or low!). But... sad to say, few people 
want 199's and the little borg warner automatic.

What condition? If recently rebuilt, that would be different. If you're 
pulling them because they're worn and need repairs and you don't want 
them, they're not worth much at all. In fact it is possible you could 
have trouble GIVING THEM away.

The 199 is unfortunate too, in that AMCers who like sixes (me) generally 
go for the larger 258, and since all AMC sixes are still common and easy 
to find, older unrebuilt jobs are not worth much. Known running 
condition helps though. The 199 cranks and rods are unique. The rest of 
the motor is the same as other displacements for the same year engine.

BUT! if someone wants it and you have it and they're local, that could 
make a huge difference.
