This is my first post to this forum - thank you kindly for any help offered.
I recently became the owner of a 1939 Buick Sedan. It belonged to my Uncle (who pampered the car) for decades but it sat dormant for roughly 16 years until I "rollbacked" it to a mechanic a few months ago for a tune-up. He did the things you would expect: plugs, wires, clean the gas tank, replace fuel line, brakes, water and gas pumps.
The car now starts and drives wonderfully. But, there is a noticeable engine miss while idling and driving. I've seen some testimony about solid core wires and plugs (?)

Good evening,

In addition to that, what else should I check?
Thank you very much for any suggestions.
