So this journey started in June of last year. This was my wife's grandfather's that he bought new in 97. After his passing in 2013 and really since 2010 the thing sat under a cover plugged in. My wife and I moved into the house to help maintain property and establish ourselves. Well after 4 or 5 years dormant and mice infested I started the project. And it included this:
