Should I part this car out?, 1970 914 Options

I bought this car this summer, even though I knew it was more project than I wanted. The PO had lost his job and really needed to sell it. I have since bought a couple cars in much better shape, and am trying to decide what do with it.

It is a '70 1.7L with a single carb, and it has a good title (Yes, I know it has 75/76 bumpers on it). I have a use for the engine and tranny. The car needs hell hole work, a passenger side motor mount, and new pans (although they aren't terrible and could probably be patched in a pinch). The rear trunk is in pretty good shape, and the front trunk is great. The car is missing a lot of little parts here and there, mostly related to the interior. But, overall, it isn't too bad.

Anyhow, it is time to either sell it or part it out. It is taking up space that I need to utilize. I hate to part any of them out. But, since it is a '70, with a good title, it particularly seems wrong. Thoughts?

1. can u post a pic of the front trunk where the bumper shocks should be?

2. if it is a solid car with just cancer under the battery tray, floor pan and rear truck then that is actually a good builder. In fact that describes my car lol

Here is a picture. I am not sure if you meant from inside the trunk. I don't have one with me.

The issue is that I need the space. The car is right on the line between part it and save it. But, I don't have any room to store it. And it is more rust than I care to deal with. If somebody wanted to tackle it I'd sell it at a good price.
