I would take the money and run.

Privatte party value (KBB) on your car is 29K without the mods.

How much money do you think you can make by parting out the car and selling parts separately.

I think if you did that..you could sell car for 31,000 and mods are over $5000...but a lot of extra work..

ALIGA is right...take the money and run...

Once the car is sold for 36K, I would take the money and goto a dealers auction. If your lucky you can pick up a 2000 GS300 with 30K miles for much less than 30K.

Thumbs up

If your desire to start a new project is really strong, I would take the money. You may not get another offer for that amount.

Wow - you've done a TON to that car, but if you're really ready to start a new project, that seems like a good price.
