When to Sell?

OK, it seems the '96 NG900 SET needs some suspension attention at 125000 miles. Im guessing strut inserts, mounts, bearings, and possible ball joints and bushings along with sway bar links. I think the tab could be as low as $300 to $400. With bushings and ball joints, put another $400 down. (detailed pricing not completed let me know if Im off).
Last year I replaced everything that the serp. belt touches. We got the A/C fixed too. Fresh tires. Fresh brake rotors and pads all around, but still lacking, (a topic for another post).
I got a good purchase price going in, but now I would take a hit if I sold. But, now we are looking at another $800 +/- and I do it myself - (for and automatic?)
I like the car ok, but not blown away. At present I feel confident in driving it any distance. It seems quite easy to work on, thanks to this board. O-the paint is nice and everything works.
Is it time to let it go>?? Or do I fix it and drive on?
Just looking for opinions. How do you know when to sell.
Thanks,
Charles
