Default Race car, sell complete or break???

Hi, been away from the Subaru scene since 2009 when I parked my race car in the garage to get married. Work and family commitments means the Subaru is un-likely to be used again so just seeking advice on what's best way to sell it.
Can't find anything for sale lately to value it.
If i break it is there still a market for classic race parts as there seems to be nothing on eBay nowadays?
thanks steve

93 wrx shell, custom cages weld in cage to front and rear. 2.35 CDB with MD321t. 450 / 450 reliable power. Simtek setup by jolly green. PPG straight cut dog box, plated rear diff. 330mm AP's, brembo of 2 pot rears, AST 3 way coil overs. Lot of weight saving. Need to put it on scales but think it was about 1100kg wet. Runs 9" x 17 touring car wheels and tyres.
Looks like the technology has moved on a bit and it's a bit out of date now???

Every single bit of that car (including the shell if it is rust free) is still desirable.

Worth more in bits if you have the time to break it......

Interested in the cage should you decide to split?

I am pretty sure that if you break it you will get rid of most of the car ,if you can deal with the ball ache of braking it.Where abouts are you? Some pics & a list of parts & rough asking prices would be good.

I'd list the car first, then if you can't sell then break it.

If you do break it, I'd be interested in the suspension.
