Default What's it worth mk 2 escort estate

I'm very reluctantly considering selling my escort due to moving house it needing a lot of work , so I haven't touched the car in a couple of years, best be is look at the resto thread https://passionford.com/forum/restor...turbo-zvh.html,
It has been in the grafters section of classic ford mag,
Basics are it's fitted with

1.8 zvh turbo engine,
Efi injection
T5 gearbox
Shortened atlas axle 280 sport Capri so plated LSD fitted,
Have front coil overs to go on
Rs steering wheel
Rs clocks
Brand new wings
Mint inner wings
FORD circle headlight grill
All rot cut out properly with pics to show,
New inner and outer rear arches
Stage 3 t3 turbo
Battery in boot,
I could go on forever,

What do you think it would be worth

I've put a lot into it, and loads of parts, that's why I'm struggling to price it, don't really want it on ebay

Any one any thoughts on this, I'm guessing it would be better to part it out?

Don't really want to strip it but could do with freeing some cash, would of preferred it go in one piece but I think it may take a special buyer,
Nobody has even punted on a figure they think it's worth, it's very hard to value unfinished

Not got a clue on price the axle and gearbox are worth over a grand on there own, ofam ecu unfitted, turbo has done 50 miles, front coil overs never fitted, brand new rears, custom fuel tank with internal swirl pot, wideband
Front wings cost me £350, grill was £150
I no they say you don't get back what you spend so was wondering what people thought it was worth before deciding if it was worth selling or not,

We could be interested in the complete lot...but it all depends on price...would be for an awesome demo car...but as stated, the price needs to be right.

Completely understand a small fortune has been spent on it, and also completely understand you want as much for it as you can get...and obviously I want it as cheap as I can get lol
