Default 1968 Mercury 650 stuck in forward

Since you discussed hillbilly, it made me remember an old joke. On your
tombstone I can imagine them including your last words before you died:

"Watch This!"

Somehow I think the "hillbilly" is going to take you on this deal.

Hey, Clams, I've got an opportunity to pick up a nice boat, but the
motor is blown. I can get the boat for what I consider a good deal for
the boat only. The hillbilly doesn't know what exactly is "blown".
It's a 1987 150 Mercury XR-4. Any idea how much parts would run for a
decent rebuild? Let's assume a piston or two, rings, bearings, etc. Is
this a decent motor, if one WAS to make it run decent again?
