If you split you will get more £ out of it

But i'm sure someone would snap it up finished if you asking price isn't ott... keeping in mind you will never get out what you have put in

well if you sell it as one you get a solid amount there and then, if you split you may end up getting money in drips and drabs... but if you have the time and space i would split

yeah 99 t reg vehicle that is std and complete even with little crash damage will be more attractive than an unfinished equivalent covered in fibreglass that needs spraying, put it to std

The body kit isnt going to add any value imo......what you have there is a sorry looking car with half fitted body kit & engine conversion (unsure of the mods....not exactly made clear!!) - its not exactly desirable motor is it!!?

Stick it on Ebay as half finished project....its free to list this weekend
