She lives!

So here's a quick update. Got the replacement battery, she starts like nobodys business. Pretty sure the drive is dead because it sounds horrible and the machine skips past even trying to boot from it.

Next step will be replacing the drive with a BlueSCSI prepped with NeXTstep 3.3.

EDIT: I just realized I was funny here. "Next step will be". Hahaha. Next step will be NeXTstep.
