I’m looking forward to Thursday, and I really hope the motor car is as described. I rather hope that I might get to work on it in the same way that I do the RB, and perhaps even drive the P1800 from time to time.

It looks like there is something missing in the centre console Alan and (after enlarging the photo to 500% (which makes it a smidge blurry) it looks like it might be a slot for a spindle mount radio. If so, this would be a good choice to fill it :

Not necessarily the cheapest unit but has BT streaming, handsfree calling from phone and many other useful features and wouldn't look too out of place down in the centre console. Also a decent power output and ISO connectors.
Recommissioning/improvements are definitely a good idea and i would suggest a full service too. If i remember which thread it was on, someone posted the link to an online manual for it that covers the D-Jetronic injection. There are also 4 Haynes manuals on fleabay for it as well :

From a time when Haynes produced proper workshop manuals and not Mickey Mouse ones with silly-spanner ratings!
