That sounds insane but I know you are right ! That being said.... he is looking at a nice bill as well to redo the interior, especially in those colors. Door pockets are there but the opening portion of them are trashed apparently, and if you put a new one the other 1/2 (the fixed pocket) it might not match anymore... those aren't cheap for a set... Blue door panel / seat material (if original and correct) will be rare and not cheap either... I once priced a seat redo at the recommended place, and got hot flashes for a week... Black is easier but you should wait to see what the COA says. The smart $ is stock specs right now. It'll be worth it in the end, no doubt (stock Ts can now reach 6 figures in very original trim) but it's going to take a serious $$$investment$$$ to get to a nice condition if you stay stock (which you should, but heck, it's your car). It's easy to spend $10K just in interior bits nowadays, another $10-15K in paint + rubber, let alone suspension pan, engine, mechanicals, or rust.... Good idea to build a garage - those things are relatively cheap to insure with a classic insurance but it needs to be locked up ;-)
