Remember, this is basically a used car dealer.  Not necessarily dishonest, but 
they have to buy cheap and sell dear or they can't
stay in business.  The $195 "out of state" fee seems bogus to me as well.

I'm guessing the ammeter never shows charge, as it appears the alternator is 
wired directly to the battery.

Also a question for those more familiar with early TR4 than I am : Shouldn't 
the starter solenoid be up on the shelf, where it can
be reached easily?  In the photos, I don't see how you'd get your finger on the 
rubber button.
