She’s a beauty. Think long and hard about it. If it were me, if you don’t need to sell for financial reasons, I’d hang on to her.
It might be time to sell and move on.

Mark,
The car has been an old friend for many years and seen it's time as a daily driver and schlep wagon. It was like having a small truck.
As someone very much in the health issues camp, here's my suggestion....
If you can set it up in one of those car storage bags for a while, do that. The market isn't going to fall out anytime soon, certainly not with new prices where they are. Full fluid replacement, fog the cylinders, etc etc etc.
It's always easier to sell later, than wish you had it back. And harder to find in this market too. Physical limitations are what they are, and, being unable to do all the work youd like is really tough, maybe even more mentally than as bad as it is physically.. but, theres something to be said for knowing what you've got even if you can't address the punch list anytime soon.
If you *did* decide to test the market, I'd hang a high enough price on it to get enough money that it makes a quality of life improvement for you. And it may be that there isn't a rational price that moves that needle in that direction.

This is truly a case of, "I know what I got." Unless the insurance is killing you, hold onto it. Rally the Forum and get your 200-4R. My wagon can contribute a rebuilt low-mile 3.73 7.5 with an Auburn posi plus some cash to offer for your 3.08 GN. Maybe we can help get you to completion. Vanrah's coupe probably got crushed; don't let that happen.
