HI Ryan, did you put the engine and everything in? so you know cost, purchase price ,manhours, then is it running? does it run? wipers missing with rack it looks? Hows the rag top ,rear window frame? interior? number plate plith on front missing? hows rear number plate held on. , stiff like this makes people barter harder.
Prices can be anything from 1000 to 1101 , if all parts there and only a matter of refitting for MOT then you can ask for more realistic price. PUT location and someone may pop round of the forum and have a look, maybe help with valuation
.
I search ebay / autotrader / gumtree for stuff and then look at what ive got and decide from market prices and the cost to me what i think its worth.
regards

These are the main problems which will significantly affect the value. Why were twin carbs fitted (to an injection car) and the work not completed?
If that's done and the car has an MoT (everyone wants an MoT….) its value will truly reflect the car. Otherwise it could/should be considered an unfinished project.

Put it on ebay or similar auction site with that description and a dozen pics and the market will decide.
My guess would be the lower end of the cabrio price range.
EDIT. This recently recommissioned, working, MOT'd, 16v modified (with original injection), similar-ish mileage, tidy-ish cabrio made £5,400 at this Aprils Mathewsons auction, so that gives you an idea of that that max yours could do if it underwent the same work to get it to the same condition.
Without all that its a £1000 orphan in my opinion.

The trouble with doing nothing is that you never know when you are finished.

If it was mine I would expect to sell for between 1000 - 1500. It may be an idea to eBay off all the modification parts separately. It’s the variation from standard which hurts the value most. Probably worth about the same with no engine, that way someone might buy the engine separately , and the same with all those non standard parts. It depends if you have the time to be eBaying and dealing. Otherwise your best bet is auction the lot on eBay and let it find it’s own value
