Book Value doesn't really exist when you're talking about a 20-year-old car of any type, but especially when it's a 'special edition' and has extensive mods, as your's does.

A dealer might offer you $2500. or so - if he would even take it - and a private party will offer/pay what HE thinks it's worth., which might be $4,000. - or $1,000.

For what it's worth: I had a restored (by me) second-generation Camaro (350/M22) with lots of mods and new parts. I put 40,000 miles on after the resto and I sold it for $1,800 when the car was 19 years old. O.K., it needed a little work, by then.

It's worth what you can get. I would hang on to it.
