Thank you for the links.

240K. We bought the car new. My wife LOVES the car and wants it back on the road. I realize it is not the most cost effective method of transportation, but want to at least look into it. We stopped using the car about a year ago due to electrical /instrument cluster issues. A local mechanic switched out the instrument cluster, and more problems were created than solved. What I would like to do is to re-wire the car, but I am sure it is a massive task. I guess professional diagnosis is the best next step.

The body is in great shape. It has no rust (except around the rear tailgate window) and has never been hit.
