As I see it, I have 2 options, try to fix the "FAIL" items or sell the vehicle as a project car.

Which "FAIL" tasks can I accomplish at home and which will I have to take in? If this will be too large a task, what would the fair market value be for this car to be sold as is?

Things you can do yourself:
Window regulator
Air oil seperator
Clutch adjustment (Check slave cylinder for leaks, Adjust cable accordingly)
Ignition switch (you just need the manual, it's easier than it sounds)
Replace coolant tank - Pain in the rear, but after doing the AOS and clutch adjustment you will see exactly what you need to do to remove the coolant tank.
Right and left headlights - Get them used on Ebay or Woody from this forum ($500 or less for both)
Lastly: Set fire to that shop
