Default rebuild or buy another engine???

I have (2) 95 classics SWB and one of them also has leaking head gaskets. My local estimate was $1800, didn't even bother going to the local dealer.

We are going to be selling the nicer one next week (on ebay...shameless plug I know) so we defiantly want to keep the other so we will be fixing it soon.

My thought was to buy a 60K mile engine for $2000 from a place I found in Florida that could send it to me for only $200. I know someone who will do the work on the side at a really good price.

Any thoughts on buying a used low mile 60K engine instead of doing the rebuild of the original 135K mile engine? Any downside I do not see?

Thanks in advance
