Opened case, surpisingly clean inside. Plugged in absolutely nothing happened. Dead as a doornail. No time to work on it ATM. Should be fun future project. :)

So do you know yet what you will do with all the stuff?

Making a litte working museum for yourself, and selling/donating some?

A working museum for myself definitely. Selling? donating? I am not sure as yet.

Having got all this, I am still in the process of sorting-cleaning it. Then I have to renovate my summer kitchen, wire, insulate, drywall, paint and make some shelving over the summer. Then the task of cleaning the insides and finding out what works and what does not will begin probably system by system. And seeing if what does not work can be fixed.

At my age I just take it day by day and who knows, before I get through it all my wife could be posting an ad like I answered. :)
