Early narrow body Excels like this are 'right' in many ways to my eye - the value of all Excels will benefit if these early Excels are expertly restored. Hopefully someone with a lot more money than the asking price will see it too and get this one properly restored. They deserve respect IMHO. Good luck with the sale.
