71 Cutlass Conv. need advice

How much you have into it and how much do you need to break even? If your planning to make a profit it might be hard? Probably need more details of what's going to be finished product. Is that a Chevy BB?
That is a serious customization of a classic so your market will be limited. You never know though?

Welcome to the site. I moved your thread and edited the title. Theres not enough info to provide an accurate answer, need a better description on whats been done, and whats left. What remaining parts and condition, etc

Welcome. It would help to know why you "regret" this project. Bottom line is that you'll be lucky to get 25 cents on the dollar if you sell it in this condition. Of course, even finished, you'll never get back what you have in it. Custom cars like this are very subjective, so unless you find the one person with both your same tastes and enough money, you'll find this a difficult sell.

Am I seeing this wrong? Is that not a non-boxed chassis he's built on to put under a convertible? Motor appears to be Oldsmobile, no? Edlbrock hi rise manifold?
On another note: That's a lot of time and money just to give up. From the looks of the shop this is not your first go around, so as previously asked what's your reason for throwing in the towel?

Good eye. Yup, that's a hardtop frame. Not a good choice under a convert body. Yes, that's an Olds motor. Looks like a Torker intake?

There isn't going to be any profit here. The $1700 psuedo-serpentine drive will be lucky to fetch half of that. The market for an expensively-painted red hardtop frame is almost non-existent, so one won't ever recover the cost to prep and paint it.
