Today, the dealer is going to flush all the fluids and see if the motor will start. The ECM is not quite working, so it thinks the clutch pedal isn't pushed in. They're going to jump that and see what happens. This place is billing like $80-100/hr for what they're doing. The guy ballparked $5K to get everything running, but offered the disclaimer that wiring could corrode over time and cause more problems.

I've contacted Conte's in Vineland, NJ where the car was purchased. They're apparently no stranger to pulling cars apart, checking everything, and reassembling. If the drivetrain turns out to be sound, we might bring the car there for hopefully a little more expertise, and a lower labor rate.
