So let’s say a working coach of that era would bring 30K. In my opinion, 5 to 7k to get it rolling safely is a huge under estimate. Making it useable after 28 yrs of sitting is a HUGE investment in time and money. You could easily spend twice your estimate not including your time. And this is from a guy who also enjoys getting dirty and working on things.
My biggest concern is the two stroke sitting for that length of time and the o rings and seals drying out which would require tearing into the engine. Run it for at least an hour, then sample the oil and have it analyzed for coolant by Blackstone or another oil analysis company.
I would take some batteries and fresh fuel to get it cranked before I even thought about a number.
