Old Man with a Hat
Sees out from under the trees for the first time since parked in 1995! Got it home this afternoon. I'm pretty amazed at how straight this 70K-mile car is! The roller minus eng/trans has been sold to a guy near Omaha, NE as a parts car for his '76 NYB.
It dawned on me to do a YouTube video - "will it run after 25 years?" - and that's what will happen! My son is going to crank up the leaf blower and clean out the engine bay, and also power-wash the exterior with his new power washer. One door opens. The right doors have what's left of a small tree that grew up into the doors.
Assuming the wiring harness wasn't trashed by critters, we'll hook up a separate fuel source and a battery, and give it a shot! Worst that'll happen is "click"! The weekend looks great. This will be fun!
