Dude, Part it out then trade it in cause your never gonna get even close to what your first poll number is!
Somebody would have to know the car with all its got to give you what you want and others will think its just been beat on.

I would part it out. You can always get more money out of it that way, unless you find someone who is looking for a car with things already done to it.

Your mods are worthless (or worse, they may actually decrease the value) on a trade. My suggestion is to price the vehicle realistically (below your poll numbers) for a private party sale. If that fails, sell what you can and return the vehicle to as close to stock condition before trying to trade it in.

Dude, love your car. Well, of course I do...it looks kinda like mine! I must say I love those rims, they look tight.

Oh, and what to sell it for? You probably don't want to know. Seriously, probably like low $20ks. Sad, I know but that's just the reality of it.

+1 to buying your eleanor grille if you decide to part it out
