Sell my Duster or 360 Swap??? Help?!?

O.k. I bought my Duster with my intent to do a 360 swap, but the more I read more more I question if it's worth it (time, and money). Do you think it might be more of my best intrest to sell my Duster, and find a car with a V-8 already installed? My Duster is a CA car, with next to no rust, just a few dents, and dings. I paid $900.00 for it, so sticking $1500.00 into it seems like it still would be a deal, but at the same time since it is a good shape, I might be about to sell it for $2500.00 and find a different car with a running V-8, you know?
Any thoughts???

Thanks!
