Painting and updating an '84 PT-40

[TeamConfuzed@...]

We've been taking a look at a PT-40 that has supposedly been sitting outside
for some time. If we get involved deeper with this one there will be PLENTY
of questions for this group, but my first questions involve external
appearance.

I have seen one or two of the '83-'84 Birds that were advertised as being
updated to the 1987 style (lower set rectangular headlights). What is
involved, money-wise and reconstruction-wise, in doing this update?

Secondly, what is a ballpark figure for a good quality repaint of the entire
coach? I'm not sure that a complete repaint would be necessary with this
Bird -- maybe some serious cleaning and buffing would do the trick, and
replacing the vinyl tape that is peeling. But I would be interested in knowing
in
case a repaint begins to look like the way to go.

Thanks for your help, and thanks to those nice folks that ave answered my
questions in the past.
