Default 03 XJ8 with bad rod bearings

I have an 03 xj8, my mechanic says I have bad rod bearings, quoted me about 3.5k to replace.

While I love that car. I have decided that I want to move on. I am curious what you might suggest I do with it. It is costing me to store it, and a junkyard isn't likely to give me more than a hundred bucks for it.

Any suggestions? Perhapps suggest big-ticket items I might be able to sell out of it?

I made a post earlier about this, but didnt make clear that I moving on to a new car.

How many miles are on it?

Sellable if in good shape:.
Transmission.
Steering wheel possibly.
Drivers seat.
Body processor module.
Security locking control module.
Center console lid w/ functioning cup holder.
Third brake light.

There might be more that someone else can think of.

Put that puppy in the Members Marketplace, there's bound to be someone with a motor looking to match it to a car.

Transmission Is recently rebuilt. Driver's seat has some weathered leather but no tears or breaks. BPM, SLM i can put them both up, Third brake light works.

was also gonna do ABS module, and apparently the wheels sell pretty well
