Selling my car, need some advice on whether to keep the roll bar in?

So, I'm fixing up some interior parts. I'm at the point now where I can remove the roll bar. I don't have the bins anymore.


I'm wondering for resale value should I take the bar out? I have 5 pt harness's and racing seats though, so if I remove it I have nothing to attach it to.

This is what it looks like behind the seats, obviously this was dirty and in the middle of the construction, with no plastics in.

The car looks highly modded so I'd leave it in you have more to worry about than just the roll bar or in other words whoever buys it will likely want the bar if they want all the other mods.

It really depends. Used rollbars can be tricky to sell as they're bulky and pricey to ship. I think with everything done to the car it kind of fits in and works. I'm assuming with the rollbar in the storage bins can't go in?

I would personally leave them. I don't think you'll be money ahead removing them and it really goes with the car.

Thanks guys. Leaving it in. I just have the interior out going over and labeling all the custom wiring incase anyone needs to figure it out in the future. So if I was going to remove it, now would be the time.

Yeah I wasn't looking to come out ahead by selling it, more of a does it make my car worth less by having it in, vs buying black bins and taking it back to stock.


Got into rally racing and just seemed to lose interest in fast street cars.
