No reason you can't do both.

I suspect this might be the same lump that could have been had on ebay a
few weeks back for 1300. If it is, then it really IS nice. Looks like the
pilot hopped out about 15 years ago, closed the hatch and left it. It
looks like 10 mins with a duster would have it as good as new.
