Well, you did ask for opinions.

As others have stated, you won't get the the money or more importantly time back.

No one is going to buy a 78 that is not in a position to restore it. If you undertake part of the restoration, you may or may not do it along the lines of the next owner.

Figure what time and materials you would put in it to "spruce it up" as you say, deduct the value of that from what you think the coach would sell for. Since you WILL NOT get the money of any upgrades back, then the sale would be a wash.

Just one way of looking at it.
