My wife as stumbled upon a 1978 Eleganza ii with 17,000 miles that has been sitting for 7 years, available for a song. I am going to look at it tomorrow, but for all I know the frame could be rusted through. But for a second lets imagine we pick up this thing up. My question is what are are the essential upgrades this is going to need to make it a reasonable driver?
I know the engine is going to need an overhaul, and I will need all new tires. What about the braking system. I have seen a lot written about a reaction arm from AppliedGMC. Is this a good upgrade for the price? Assuming they are not rotted away would the fridge, stove, furnace and AC units be usable or are they the kind of thing that need to be replaced with modern components? Thanks for your wisdom.
Dan
