Default To scrap or not to scrap, that is the question

I know this question has been talked about before and my arguement was to keep any type of rare car on the road at all costs but now my personal circumstances have changed I no longer have the time or space to deal with a poorly coupe that needs some love to get it back on the road. Should I let her go cheap to someone who could put her back on the road or should i just ebay the good bits and try and get some money back (which i could really do with at the moment) thoughts please,... oh yeah the car is a 1981 inari silver quadlamp gt5 thought to be the 2nd earliest on the road, not worth that much but only a handfull left.pics on my profile page. This is not a for sale ad, just want to know what you lot think.

work out how much you could make stripping it/selling it/scraping it and do whatever brings the easiest quickest money lol

Well worth eBaying or even advertising on here before you contemplate breaking her. they are rare cars and will only appreciate. I'm sure someone on here could give her some love.
