I have just become a SOTA owner. I am very excited about the whole thing. I never thought this day would come in this life. But it just goes to show that mom was right when she said "All good things are worth waiting for". So here is my new baby:

Made in 1988 and reportedly never left the sellers home for any repair or up-grades. It looks new in the photos. The seller tells me the "springs / suspension" are in lock-down mode and therefore ready for transit.
How can I check to be sure??
I never heard of this Cartridge. Benz Ace 6, Is it any good?
I will be selling my old table which has a brand new Sumiko Bluepoint Special Evo III on it. I'd like to keep the best cart for the SOTA. Which cart should I keep?
The deal is done and I should pick it up Saturday weather permitting. Is there anything special I should know before I pick this up and put it in the backseat of my car and drive it 700 miles. I plan on putting it on several cushions from my lawn furniture.
Any and all advice welcome.
I'm so happy I'm not even worried about the divorce this will probably bring about.
