Are you getting the stool as well?
It is worth getting it transported properly, to avoid costly repairs.
Congratulations.

What do I think?
It may need extensive repairs. But so? If the action works fairly well, the pinblock isn't shot and you can have some fun with it, it is freakin' cool. Might be a great restoration candidate. Its a lovely piano. Have a good time with it. The price was certainly good.

Any updates, did it go more or less to plan? Would love to know.
