I would expect lower value and a harder time selling it. Nobody older than about 25 wants to buy a modified car. You'd be better off trading parts with someone, or taking the loss.

I've modified and built many vehicles over the years. I never sold them for as much as a stock vehicle is worth. I had to part out and recycle my 72K original mile 2 owner Nissan 300ZX turbo (one year only car with the "big" turbo and better body style.) because nobody would buy it. The rear diff sold in 24 hours for more than the highest offer I received for the car. You're always better off selling stock, even if you have to give your parts away in trade to make it stock.
