Well you're in luck! I just rebuilt a curb find 730 Multitrack and you can see my project here:
Trek 730 MultiTrack Curb find- Operation WetTrek
The 730 is essentially the same bike with higher level components and a full CrMo frame. Please feel free to ask any questions about the project as I learned a bunch along the way. The end result was worth the effort - it's smooth, comfortable, and easy to ride plus has a great modern drivetrain.
