$15K give or take $1000. If you can find someone who can look past the 100k on the odo, and see it for the tasteful mods, maybe more.

Has the front cover been repainted? Has there been any paint/repair work done?

I would never trade that car, not at a dealer anyway. Private party trade maybe, otherwise you'll lose your ass with all the mod money you have in it. I wouldn't worry about the odo so much, as long as it doesn't look like it. If it's super clean and never been wrecked, you should be somewhat buffered from deflation since it's a Cobra. I don't know how the nor-Cal market is, but if you lived on the East Coast and took it somewhere like Englishtown where people appreciate well modded cars, you could turn it for $15K with little trouble. Up in stuffy New England where I am, nobody (relatively) is interested in hotrods that aren't at least two decades old, so I'd lose less on my stock Cobra here. You just gotta go to the right place.
I'd say as long as it's in top shape and runs tight, tally up the ridiculous amount of receipts you have from the build up and put it in the Ford Trader. "$x invested, asking $__". Or, take a ton of high res pics and put it on ebay- you never know when magic is going to strike there.

OR trade it to me, for mine. Plus some cash. What?! Where are you going?!
