long story short and leaving out all the drama, this is the terror drome i picked up from ebay recently. $162 plus 50 shipping.
I like to save this thread to document its restoration. mods, please dont merge the threads and let the other fade away into oblivion, or delete it. : ) now for the pics!!! avac was bought seperately.

ill need to de-sticker and clean with baby oil and alcohol first. doesnt look too tough. i doubt ill need goo-gone.
(edit) i have already used a tiny bit of goo gone to get the toughest stickyness off.

most of the grey pieces will need a hydrogen peroxide and sun bath. some of this stuff is pretty yellowed, but next summer i should have plenty of sun to handle it.

Congrats CV!!! Glad to see you finally got your TD, despite all the drama from the seller. Please don't pay the extra $30 he was asking for.

Sweet, bro! Glad you were able to still get it without the seller being weird or vindictive. Can't wait to see the project completed. Enjoy the restoration!
