I guess it depends on your enthusiasm for the project and the condition of the rest of the car. If it's in good condition it probably would be a candidate for another engine, as long as you have the time and energy to do the work. If it's a rusty body with a poor interior it might make a good parts car for someone else... It might be fun to put a 560 engine in it...
It will be interesting to hear what let loose in the engine to cause it to seize so solidly. I suppose raw gas in a cylinder could cause the rings to go into the cylinder wall and bring things to a halt.
