95 Z28 "worth" - F-Body Road Racing and Autocross Forums

I have owned the car for couple of years and autocross it for the last 2 seasons. It has come a long way since I picked it up "stock". I just keep thinking about a C5. Not just for the performance ability, but as a more comfy DD and street toy. I already have my "perfect C5" pictured in my head.

So at the end of this season I'm thinking about selling the car. Setup is as follows:
1995 Z28 M6 non t-top car
70K mi (will go up) (I bought the car with 53K mi on it)
Full exhaust
Dyno tune
SLP air lid under stock LT1 hood
Griffin aluminum radiator
160* thermostat
Meziere EWP(wired with LED warning light)
SLP manual fan switch
Shift light installed
Front strut tower bar
Strano 550/150 springs
Koni on car SA shocks
LS1 front brake swap
Stainless braided front brake lines
Watts link
Suspension Technique 35mm solid front sway bar
Hellwig 22mm solid 3 way adjustable rear sway bar
Eaton TrueTrac put in maybe 2000mi ago with stock gears in the 10-bolt.
Heat and AC work, power windows/locks work (power side mirrors seem to act up though).
No major dents, some dings on hood from rocks. Car cleans up nicely for a 95.
Car is solid and could be taken to the next level.
IMO it is pretty "standard" setup that can be used to race. Most of the weak points have been addressed already.

I want to ask here because I'm not wanting to take parts off of it to put it more to stock. I picture someone on this board being interested and continuing to race it because they know F-bodies and know the worthwhile modifications I have put on the car. At this stage in my life, I feel I want the challenge to save upper a car I want and not buy cars that I stumble upon. This C5 purchase will take over a year (between saving and searching) so I am willing to travel for the right car.

Thanks for any opinions. I know what I paid for it, and how much (roughly) I have into it so I have a sales price in my head but want to know if others think I'm on the right track.

Mine is an LS1 car more heavily modded than yours, so there is no point trying to return it to stock, and it would be a time consuming shame to part the car out. I'm going to lose my shirt when I try to sell it.
