Well, after two plus years of deliberately working to build and modernize my beloved 1986 Syncro project I have reached the proverbial crossroads of "keep it or sell it".

My take (worth what you paid for it) it that you don't really give any reason to sell it except..

Adding up those bills yields way more money than you are likely to get. So, are you saying you want to cut your losses now, or not put any more money into it (and there is always more money to out into these things), or has a another rig, or hobby got your attention?
Unless it is one of the later, the money is spent, you'll take a big hit if you sell (as you on a new car purchase, so no reason to expect otherwise), so why not just use it and forget the money spent - water over the damn, or under the bridge or something like that  It's a nice rig!
But if something else is grabbing your fancy, then no harm in selling and pursuing that interest(s) at all. IF you are just looking for interest, then advertise it with your price or put it on E-Bay with a high reserve.
