I would rather not say what the car, or the repairs cost individually. Since the seller is a member of Reenlist someone may recognize the car and know who the seller is and what they let the car go for, or at some point in this thread someone may ask who the indy is and I wouldn't want to be advertising his costs to me with the public. I will however share any additional costs I run into and provide my total cost.

I am hoping I don't get too many surprises for additional repair items. I really think I will see something pop up, and that is expected, I am just hoping the costs won't be really great. Do I need to be concerned about steering racks or fuel injection systems with this car? For a car that sat for 15 years where is the greatest possibility for issues?

CIS? Hell yes. I don't work on them anymore, but even 20+ years ago they were getting to be a pain to bring back from the dead, especially here in CA.
I'm guessing your work quote is in the $8-10K range. Don't be surprised if, at retail, that gets to pushing double.

Thanks to everyone for all of the informative and positive bits of advice and information.
While this car is all apart, and in the rebuild stage, are there any improvements I should consider? I'm thinking this would be the best time to do any engine, suspension, etc. upgrades.
Any ideas or suggestions?

It looks like this car was delivered new without the fog lights. How big of a deal/cost would it be to have these installed. I really like the look of the cars where they have them.

You need to check if the mounting area, wiring and dash switch are in place. From there, go to pelican parts.com and start adding costs.

Enjoy the car and do a bunch of investigating on P car sites about options/mods for a later date once you have a real feel for what you want to do.
Otherwise you may be doing and undoing projects.
