Steve congrats on the acquisition of this magnificent time capsule. My recommendation is to detail it a bit, install the drivetrain and then enjoy it as is for a period of time. BTW we would love to have this one certified through our Vintage Certification program as well.
What makes this site so enjoyable is the cooperative atmosphere and helpful folks that make up this site. Kudos to Jeff, Brian and a host of other people that helped make this happen.
