Definatly the wrong place to market this car. Sorry, I don't think it's worth 27k either.
Take into effect we're all cheap bastards, and the fact you will NEVER get the money back that you've dumped into this car. it is a depreciating asset, no matter WHAT you do to this car, it's value will drop.
You would get more for it stock.
Not a flame, just my two cents.
