Nope not a tall deck according to Mor-Tec, would have to tear it down and see what's inside to figure what it's worth???..
361959.....454.......73-90...2 or 4 bolt

So how long since it sunk? If it is really rusty, I would probably pass on the thing. If it turns over and you can get it for free, you could pull it apart and see what you could do with it. The 2300 .030 indicates a TRW part number, and the block has been bored .030", so plenty of material left. The truck blocks can usually go .100 or even .125" over.
