Default 1972 20 Potter Hull - How Far Should I Go?

I had this posted for sale and have now decided to restore it as I just couldn't let her go. I had too much interest in 1 day over this boat and some people said I was crazy for selling it, so I will keep it and move forward with a restore. This thing is in GREAT shape for a 72'. It hasn't seen water for the past 20 years and has been in a garage collecting dust.

My top 3 Questions. My goal is to have this project started mid October.

1. Transom: is Solid (no thuds), should I raise?
2. Floor: there are NO soft spots ANYWHERE on this boat. Should I be worried about stringers, tank, foam if this boat hasn't been out on the water and has been in a garage for the past 20 years?
3. Originality: How far should I modify the boat? I like the idea of a lean post, new switches, speakers, T-Top, but would this affect the "Classic" aspect?

I look forward to your input and will keep you updated.
