If you are going to sell parts from it, the one part that will get you the most money are the carbs (if it is a twin carb) They regularly fetch more than $200 on eBay, if they are advertised correctly. The funny thing is the carbs alone often fetch more than the motor WITH carbs. I guess the carbs are smaller and more 'postable'. I have sold 2 sets of twin carbs on eBay, both for over $200. VW beetle owners seem to love them.

Other parts that may net you some money are the speedline wheels, seats (if in good cond.) Fabric (again if in good cond.) Headlights.

having wrecked a sprint before they were about the only parts that went for more than $20. (actually the bucket seats sold for $1). Couldn't even sell the bumpers, and they were in good condition. After numerous tries to sell things on eBay, most of the parts went to the tip. There is just no market to speak of.

You may be able to sell the wings, doors, tailgate and body sections to someone with a giocattolo, depends how rusty they are.
