A fair price is what the seller and buyer agree upon......
Try to sell your car in your own region to people that know you and your car.....
Otherwise, you are going to attract bottomfeeders especially with all the info. you have divulged......
Best of luck with the sale......

1) if you have time and don't need to sell it now for cash:
Put it up for sale in your local PCA newsletter, spread the word, and then just wait. This won't sell anytime soon, unless you're lucky, but it should sell eventually for somewhere in the range people have been quoting here. Expect to wait until next Spring.
2) If you need cash:
You really have no choice but to part it out. Selling it "as is" in a rush will probably only net you 15-20, which is painful, and will take a lot of time and haggling which will make the pain even less pleasant.

The more I think about this car, the more it seems that someone that knows the car from your DE events would be the logical buyer; not everyone has racing aspirations, and it could just be a fun car that can be run hard.
Spread the word locally and see what happens.
Side note: my former track car (the red 1984 911 coupe), which was sold to a friend, was resold to a fellow driver that heard about it from me at The Glen. He was talking about getting a track car and I told him about that car and sure enough he bought it (and got a real nice car at a reasonable price). Admittedly it was a true no stories car, but still, I think that would be your best route.
Good luck (sincerely) with the sale; it won't happen quickly (especially this time of year), but no reason that it won't sell eventually at the right price (buyer/seller).

1.Keep it. if no go to #2
2. Try and sell it to someone that knows te car and wants it the way it is. if no go to #3
3. Remove the cage, fire susp system,data logger, seats and belts and sell them. hook up the AC and all other stock stuff that does not work or is missing like the original seats (you did save them right?). Clean up the paint a bit but don't go nuts and then addvertise it hard. Expect to take a beating on price or luck out and find a young guy with a good wad O trust fund $.

A good thing that you have the original parts. Be sure that you mention that you are including all original removed parts.
Capt. Obvious part III. Get the car in best shape you can with as many things working right (HVAC system a must) and all looking good and clean. Take lots of pictures including the spare parts. Set up a web page and post it all over. Be wary of ditherers that will waste your time with a million questions and scammers. the more you advertise the more of both you will get. There is a lid for every pot and you might find someone that is looking for your car as it is. If time is of the essence price it cheap rather than bargain down.

I would care about the original parts. I would want to put the car close to original and use it as a daily. Working AC would be a must, though.
Pulling and selling the goodies would take some time, but also bring in a nice chunk of money.
There are buyers out there who this project would appeal to, though they won't pay a premium. In that $20-$25K range they will come out.
Good luck with whatever you decide.

We went thru this about 3 years ago with a 993. Car was heavily modified DE car but did not fit into a PCA race class. We had all the original parts from the car so we put it all back to stock and relisted it. Finally got someone who wanted a DE car so we put everything back on and took out the a/c etc. Its just a matter of timing and fiding the correct buyer.
Short answer:If you need cash you are screwed, if you can afford to sit on it just wait someone will come along.
