96 Turbo Wagon dead

All,
This has been my project car for the last couple years and now I just found bad news. Daughter said engine running rough and found that #3 cylinder not firing. Further investigation I found no compression. Others in the 145 to 150 psi range. Seems like burnt valve. Maybe a result of running lean for too long and getting hot. Don't have time to fix. Would somebody realistically buy this car and fix or is it to the scrap yard?
Has 200+k miles but ran strong up to end....
