Default 06 Stratus-worth rebuilding engine or scrap it?

I need advice: 130,000 mi on my lil 4cyl. The timing belt failed resulting in a bent valve. I've already dumped a couple grand in it with new tires, water pump, struts, alternator, etc. Is it worth dumping another grand for junk yard motor and labor, repair valve (mega labor) or take my losses and scrap it?

If you intend to keep it, yes.

I want to sell it as is, but not to a bone yard. Feasible?
