Cool...

How many miles on it? Sounds like a pretty nice Bonnie
66,000. It'* been driven by my grandparents since it was new, so it'* been babied. Hopefully it'll get used to being driven hard(er) with me.

Do all Bonnevilles come with a tach? I can't remember if the one I'm getting does or doesnt.

A high velocity throttle body is an easy mod: http://www.zzperformance.com/products1.php?id=223
Ported Exhaust Manifolds are also fairly easy:
