Meanwhile I could be working on refreshing suspension/brakes, panels, electrics, etc. I'm in the Bay Area where you seem to be able to throw a stone in any direction and hit a competent air-cooled engine builder.
The thing to look for regarding the bumper and decklid is whether or not it was done because the car was hit in the rear.

I would talk to Bob Grigsby at RMG in Campbell.

But if seller won't even come close to $20k before you've seen it, keep shopping. There seem to be plenty of SCs around in the $25-30k range if you are patient.
