Default Blown motor for a 1988 760 turbo?

My younger brother calls me up and tells me that he is on the side of the freeway today He said the motor was making noises and the car was overheating! He tows the car back to my house.the car cranks but doesn't turn over. I check the oil stick and it was dry! water is leaking out ! I think its blown! If it is how much can I get for car?

$500 is a pretty good price for a car with a dead engine. I'd sell it.
