Yeah, that was my mother's old shuttle since I was 2. I learned to drive on it as well. I have no idea why the lens came off, sorry to hear about that.

The standard SOHC 740s had about 115 hp, and this one has a little over 150. I recall reading that either Porsche or Cosworth designed the DOHC head, so it's a little special. The bottom end is plain Volvo red block.

If you're good with a soldering iron, you should be able to fix the heated seats- they stopped working after someone spilled soda on the switches. The switches are soldered in, and likely need to be replaced. I don't think they're that expensive.

Should last a long time. Best of luck with it.
