Your profile looks good but the GRE really spoils it. Given your GPA and the coursework, I think it's worth it to retake GPA and then apply. I think it's better to lose a year and end up in a decent economics department. It hard to give you advice as is, because I would assume that all of the top-70 economics departments will feel uneasy about admitting someone with quant GRE below 700. Of course, you can call and ask some of them.
As for the economics departments outside of the top-70, I simply have no clue about what their standards are.
In fact, I don't even think it's too late for it this year. Take GRE in mid-November or perhaps mid-December at the latest, and there still will be lots of economics departments with deadlines that allow that.
