Advise for newbie SVX owner

[primus]

So I've had my claret 1992 SVX for just under a year now, purchased from an acquaintance who swore up and down its the car I should have. It had about 96,000 miles on it and I was able to get it for a couple hundred under blue book, which made me satisfied. Plus it rode sweet, made those long highway commutes to and from work real pleasurable.

A little history:
Upon purchase i made sure to get the car checked out by multiple mechanics, and made sure to find out if it had any tranny problems. The previous owner had replaced the tranny with a 4eat new tranny, spent something like 7k on the thing, so I figured I had 20,000 miles of wear at least before it would go out on me. Less some minor A/C recharge and alternator problems, the car didn't have any issues and the seller took care of those.

Fast forward to today:
The rear bearings started sounding like they're going out so I took it in for a full diagnostic at a soobie specialist in town. It also had some hesitation, so I was curious to find out what was going there. A few days later, I find out not only are the bearings going out, so is the tranny, power steering pump, oil pump, TPS, rotors (which was expected), timing belt, exhaust, suspension linkages, struts, I have an intake manifold leak, the A/C compressor is dead, and a partridge in a pear tree. Total tab: 6k. Not something I expected. In fact, all I expected was maybe a dead MAF, warped rotors, and obviously buzzing bearings.

As it happens to be, I'm currently very low on funds due to other aspects of my life, so I find myself well and fully swimming up **** creek right now and getting beaten by the paddle.

I've been reading these forums since I've owned the car and everyone on here seems friendly, if not very knowledgeable about this car, and I was hoping to get some guidance. The way I see my options now are as follows:
1. Sell the car as is, or part it out. The interior is pristine, so I would probably recoup 1-2k.
2. Fix the car. I love the ride, and a close friend would be willing to fix it for almost free, I would just have to get parts including a transmission.

So the way my calculations work out, if I can get it fixed for less than the blue book value of the car minus 2000, then I'm not throwing away money. Otherwise I can sell it as is or part it out and make 1-2k. That means I would have to keep parts costs under 2-3000 dollars.

What should I do?

Thanks for any and all responses. You guys are great.
