..don't be tempted to spend money on the small stuff ( getting the clock working, digital radio , new knobs/switches,tach, speedo, etc.) put the money in the body and drive train. the seats are probably due for an overhaul. i think state of the art leather-like vynal stuff may be worth a look.
the suspension bushings are also probably due for replacement. flush the radiator and change transmission and rear end fluids (probably with synthetic stuff)..
also, remove all the fuses and clean the holder with a contact cleaner.
