Re: Trying to get one rolling again...

My '61 sat for twenty years. Fuel pickup/lines were plugged (ran off a jerry can to get it running), and the points were corroded enough to not actually ground (scuffed with sandpaper).

While I bought a kit for the carb just in case, the carb runs just fine as it is.
