Just ask Calamity Joe.
That's my take on it too.
Given the choice of buying one running in fair to decent shape or buying something this close to running and needing help, I'd buy this one.
To me it is much more fun to get it back into better shape starting with a project just needing the "want to" that's required to get it wrapped up.
All of this is subject to change if it is a crappy deal though and eyeballin it is the only way to really know what ya got.

You guys are pretty much looking at it the same way I am. Should have it in my garage this weekend, then the fun starts!
