Thanks for the helpful start. The real question that we can not yet answer is whether or not we are up to taking on the project.

The frame does seem solid from what I could tell trying to crawl around the under side (admittedly I don't fit all that well.)

I am torn on the modernization vs stock options.

Agree that its historical value is higher kept as stock as possible.

However, can see it making a slightly more practical rig with newer drive train etc.

I'm sure I will be back soon with more questions as we try and decide if we want to pursue it or not. If not, then I'll see what else we can do to get it into the hands of someone who will appreciate it.
