Thanks for all the suggestions. I'm really looking forward to bringing it home and getting started on it. The idea for the engine is a good one. I'm hoping it isn't stuck (haven't messed with it yet) - but the owner had it rebuilt about 6,000 miles ago. Unfortunately, it hasn't been started in 4 years. So - I'll put some oil in each cylinder and either gently bump it after letting the oil work for a while (don't want to score anything) - or put a strap wrench on the crankshaft pully and gently turn it (we did that for a frozen Chevy 350 - and got that running). Fingers crossed - hoping nothing is rusted stuck. Think I'll just use the strap wrench before hitting the starter just in case. We're picking it up Saturday morning. I need to figure out how to get it down the driveway without brakes. The driveway is short, but has a pretty steep decent. Russ - sounds like you have some great cars! I originally wanted a wagon (I have three muddy, excited, flop-eared drooly beagles - and they do a number on my Corolla seats and windows) - but couldn't pass up the sedan. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
