I dont know that you would like what I will tell you. But if your paint is **** and your interior is rooted, what is there really left to the car? If you wrecked it, it might be worth more than selling as a whole.
Manual - 400
Wheels - 4-700
Motor - 200+ depending
I could be wrong someone might look at it and go wow. But an N/A isnt really worth a lot and the 2 major things ppl look for you have told me are rooted.

Mate I've got a Berlina wagon and the car yard 2 years ago offered me $2000. I told him to shove it.
There in caryards here for around 1500-2000 max.
Honestly man it's not worth squat.

Fact is, no matter what you do to an N/A the value of the car will never appreciate.
