Without wanting to offend, I'd have to say you've got pretty much no chance of selling it for anywhere near $26k.
As much as we all know mods aren't cheap, you never get back what you've spent on modifying a car....It's always a loss, not an investment.
Being a 94 Series 1 that makes it almost 14 years old.
You might come out better off if you were to sell parts off it and sell the car itself a lot cheaper, but that would be a lot of work, and you might not even make that much extra anyway when selling a near stock series 1 33 GTS-T which people seem to be paying $12-$15k for....
It might hurt, but thats just my opinion
