Frame Trade?

So I refurbished this 1987 Schwinn World Sport 12 Speed, but no matter the finagling I have done, it's really just too small for me. It's 50 cm (measured from the bottom of the bottom bracket), and I need around a 56cm. I was hoping to trade for a bike of similar age and condition.
What I did to it:
-New Wheels
-New Tires, Rim Strips, Tubes
-New Chain
-New Cables and Housings
-New Bar Tape
I would even be willing to just trade frames and transfer my parts over to yours. Or I would be fine selling this bike to someone for the break even price.
I am volunteering tomorrow night at Bikerowave if you wanna check it out, or email me at anothervenue[at]gmail[dot]com
Thanks in advance,
-Lucas

Bump.
You're at the BRW now, I'm guessing. So you can't answer me. But if no one takes you up on your offer during your shift tonight —
What's the break even price?

Sorry about the lack of response yet.
The break even price would be about $220.00 after frame and parts. I can fluctuate a little if need be.
It's a pretty sweet ride overall, kinda gonna miss it. It has stem shifters, but the front is friction and the rear is indexed, which is awesome and the one thing I kinda don't wanna give up.
