Not sure if you're being sarcastic (i.e., pray for guidance) or serious (i.e., there's a book that those in the know would call the restoration bible), but I assume the latter. I'm not familiar with what restoration book that might be.

I'd be happy to hear in a PM what you might be interested in giving for it. ;) Can provide pics when it's delivered, but haven't nailed down when that will be.
