Personally, I wouldn't be able to part my mothers car, if it was that nice of shape. The brake swap would save you some $$ on yours, but after that, just how desireable are those parts?? I think it's value is going to be just as good to keep it whole, and know that it is still being enjoyed and driven. I didn't see, is it a /6? If so, the $2,000 figure is likely on the Way high side.
