Well just got a preliminary list on the new to me Monty from my machanic.

Not too bad given the age.

Accessory Belts, cracked
Engine mounts in bad shape
Air Filter
Carbon deposits in the intake system
Outer Rear Axel seal on one side,
Rear break, Oil contamination from bad outer seal
Valve cover and cam plug gaskets leaking oil.

He is still waiting on pricing for all the parts to work up estimates.

Any recommendations on priority of the list, easy things like the Air Filter, I can do, not sure about how hard the accessory belts, and engine mounts are. Figure the carbon deposits could be causing the build up of pressure in the motor resulting in the valve cover leaks.

I have two service manuals coming, should be here next week.
