You will want to get on top of that rust and make it a keeper.
Thanks Zac. About to turn 100K? What's the story behind that? Any pics?

Any other important differences I should know about the Federal 85 that is different than my 83? I will have to sell my 83 unfortunately, which I have done a lot of mechanical work on to make it run so well now. I love my 83, it starts and sounds just as well as the 85 that I will have soon. Has a custom grease system unlike anything on the market, and performs the best IMHO. I will sell it with or without the grease kit if anyone here is interested.
