New purchase '72 914-6 conversion, What should I do with it? Options

[BK911]

Just took delivery of a '72 914-6 conversion and am a little disappointed in the car.
PO told me no accident or rust damage or repair, but the front end clearly has some poor repair work done to it, as well as lots of remaining crinkles in the pan.
Alignment all looks good and the car tracks well, but I did not get what I thought I bought.

Beautiful car, until you really look at this:



The lower left and right corner threaded bosses look like a bad boob job. Unfortunately I did not notice in time and am now stuck with the car.

So trying to figure out my options.

I paid $14k plus $1800 shipping and import fees, so say $16k invested.
I have the '70S engine sold (pending payment) for $10k.
That leaves a roller and $6k on the table.

Now what?
Sell the roller?
Part out the car? I can use some of the parts for my '72 1.7.
Build up a 2.4E with parts I already have and keep?
Or sell with the 2.4E engine?
Or ????

Please help!!
