Thanks for your input, everyone!
Time got away from me (Proposed to my now fiancé over the weekend!), and I did not get the chance to pick this up. It ended up re-listed and sold for about $200. Probably should've jumped on it when it was just sitting there, but oh well.
With the amount of time I tend to have, I'm more interested in a pre-restored set with little maintenance required as a starter set (Obviously at a cost). Something to teach me the basics while I still get to enjoy the hobby. Perhaps going back to the 40s isn't the best option?
