Looks to be a clean.... '69?.... 40. Given your stated goal is to sell it, I agree with the above. You're unlikely to get the money back you put into it unless you do everything yourself. Selling it as-is is likely your best bet.

Posting up pictures of the body, frame, etc could allow some of us to give you an idea of its worth as it sits. '69, if that's what it is, can be a desirable year for a variety of reasons I won't bore you with. If it's a clean, rust-free 40 without a lot of badly done repairs, it's very desirable.

As mentioned, the F engine is as simple an engine as you're ever going to find in the modern world. Likely a buyer from Mud would simply fix that engine with no need for a replacement 2F. Therefore, the money spent on a 2F would really be moot.
 
If you do an engine swap they will still have to get that engine running. You may have to expand your search for a shop beyond Houston or possibly ship it to a competent shop or member. If you can find a shop that is capable of doing the engine swap they should be able to diagnose your existing engine and possibly get it running. You don't seem interested in answering the questions that were asked, or have any interest in helping yourself. I searched your member name "ponbert" in the Clubhouse section and found no results or proof you reached out to anyone. There are several Texas groups that are listed for Texas. You need to reach out by posting in the groups that are close to you for help. You may find a buyer too.
