Vance,

I had a feeling you'd be showing up here sooner or later. Congratulations on your latest acquisition and welcome to the asylum. You may know me as Sliproc on the TR7/8 message board.

Looks like you found a nice clean stock late model steel bumper car. I know you're planning a full resto but judging by it's current condition it might be a good idea to get it running first and just drive it for a year or two. That may give you a good idea as to how much you'll want to spend on the resto.

That's basically what I did, although it took me 25 years to get around to the actual restoration!
