The belt really didn't look that bad, it did hold the shape it had stayed in for so so long. I am happy a new one's in. The water pump needed replacing, the seal in a groove was really crushed and there way some extra thick goop in the lowest section of the pump housing.
There are a few oil leaks... if I do end up keeping it I'll address them later. Oil pan gasket leaks and it might have a rear main leak. I also need to test and assess the hydraulic clutch and brakes.

In my spare time I've brought his beautiful 83 Interceptor home, it sat 25 years- ALL the hydraulic systems on it were toast, I rebuilt the front master and calipers just so I could get it home safely. A 500 lb 2 wheeler with no brakes is not something I'd load and unload from my truck. Too many hills here.

I still don't have great photos of the body, plus it's still covered in dust.
A lot should "buff right out", there are several small dents I may be able to pull.

Here's the worst of it:
