Dilemma...

I'm looking for some advice ... I have a 1959 intermediate series Sprint which was converted to competition spec :-

1300 Veloce+ spec engine based on 1300 105 block/head, high compression forged pistons, twin 40 DCOE Webers, etc

5-speed close ration gearbox

Stripped interior with bucket seats & full bolt-in cage.

Plexiglass windows all round with exception of front windscreen. Lightweight Veloce-style sliding door windows.

Car is in excellent (nr immaculate) condition.


The dilemma is this - I need to raise some money & wondered what people's views are about selling off the original (std) parts that came with the car:

Original (non Veloce) engine (condition unknown)
Original 4-speed gearbox
Original glass & door winding mechanisms
Interior - front seats, door panels, rear side panels, etc

Would I regret selling these parts if I ever come to sell the car & would having these original parts add significantly to the value of the car ?

What sort of value (approx) would these parts have ?

Any advice/comments appreciated.
