Personally, I would say sell.
A bass like that can be hard to sell. It can take a long time to find a buyer for a bass of that value.
Plus, if you had a fretless neck made for it, then you would have a fretted neck that you would have no use for, and you would still prefer one bass over the other, so you would still have a bass sitting in the closet.
Anyway, that is just my two pence. Good luck!
