  2. okay, I couldnt resist, I made some room in me shop and I hadd to get my wifes cwar in the garage so around the block she went even with out brakes! I went slow but, it made it without a hitch.
  3. Just a quick update whell not knowing if the old flathead would ever have any life again I thaught she deserved a shot. the motor had oil in it but remember this car has sat untouched for over 42 years. It was missing spark plug wires and the plugs where only hand threded 2 or 3 turns. so I have spent a total of $15.00 after my purchase on some new plugs grabed some old plug wires a buddy had. I did pre-oil the cylenders a couple days back. Then I grabed a 6 volt batery from a peice of equipment at work and put the cables to it, disconected the fuel pump line ind ran a hose from a fuel cell I had. poured a little gas down the carb. and after mabee two miniues of cranking SHE FIRED OFF! and within les then a couple minutes the smoke cleared the motor sounded and came to an idle and purred like she was new!!! next is getting the brakes to do there thing.
