Default Sad times...

Okay, so I bought this Rebel thinking there would be somewhere to race with others, but San Antonio, TX is more into nitro offroad it would seem.

So I'm thinking that I have to sell it and I'm wondering if it worth investing some cash into it to make it more sell-able. The mods I'm thinking of include:
Rebuilding the diff with ceramic balls and new rings
Crc left hub
Crc servo mounts (not angled)
Enetti wheels (grey rr, black fr)
Blackart R8c body

It already has the V2 lower arms, RC12R5 axles, a 72t spur for 17.5blinky, and all of TOP's springs for fr, ctr, and sides. I've completely disassembled and rebuilt the car, cleaning everything and all.

I think with all this it would really be an ideal set up for someone getting into 1/12 for the first time (like me... assuming you have a place to race.) or someone wanting to step up their game.

Do you think it's worth investing for the new parts or should I just try and sell it as is?

It sucks but I have no where to run it other than a parking lot and that will just tear up the beautiful chassis. I'd rather it go to someone who can really use it.

So the question is: invest and sell or just sell as is?
Thanks for all your help guys.
Rob
