Sounds like your stopping engine issue might be a linkage adjustment problem. In your 4th picture, look to the left of the fuel filter. The bottom cable is your throttle and the top is the stop cable. The cable on top might just need to be adjusted to pull back more on the lever.
Missing side panels makes me think he might have had some overheating issues. Maybe not, but makes me suspicious.
When you have the driveline apart, change the belt that drives the alternator and water pump.
