splitting is a pain in the arse. you end up with loads of bits left over, and having to rip apart the car you like.

id put it back to as standard as possible, and sell the decent parts separate.
splitting the whole car can be hassle, especially when you're left with bits you cant shift.

Advertise it as it is, see if there's interest, if not, put up a feeler post for parts.

if your looking to get the most money out of it then split it, it is a lot of hassle sending bits but worth the money. i have made between £3500-£4000 of my car and i still have bits and pieces left. no one would have payed that for it the way it was.

as for the shell i was lucky and my mate wanted it, i got £150 for it and he bought a couple other bits and pieces. what you can do is just take as much off inside a garage or something then when you are away to take the suspension off do it out side and leave it on axle stands, this way it can be picked up by a scrappy.

there is probably other ways thats just one of them
