Hi Tim, and welcome to the forum. It sounds like you've got a few things to sort but that most of the important bits should be ok. The front pickup is always handy, and rams are easy to replace or recondition.
As for questions, ask away. That way we can all learn the answers. One of us is bound to know and everyone else who reads it can also pick up new info.
If you get a moment, chuck a few pictures up. We love to see member's mogs!
