Looks better than the one I have underneath. What's up with the taillight? Mine needs new headlight assemblies: no amount of "wipe new" or polishing pads can bring them back. They don't look all that bad from the outside, but from the headlight's source, the light that makes it out is scattered.
I was seriously considering rebuilding (and may in the future if I decide to run a supercharger instead of air conditioning) my original engine. I believe the whole job costs out at around 800 bucks. Parts weren't much more than what you have. The only real difference was pistons and valve springs. The main expense was machine shop work. All the checking, clearancing, balancing, grinding and polishing adds up. From past experience, it's definitely worth it.
