Hi Jeff, I played that game last summer. It was profitable, but it was a lot more work than repairing it would have been. In my case it helped that I started off with a wolfsburg, which brought a lot of valuable components to the table; rear facing seats, fibreglass bumpers, electric mirrors and so forth. I *could* have repaired my 87, but I was tight on space, time and $$$. Selling it would bring me two of those, which made the decision a whole lot easier. Your mileage may vary.
