I started my car for the first time in couple years Sept 2017). Felt super shitty that I had waited so long to start it. Felt super shitty the last time I waited to start it. I need to get it out of my parent’s shed because the environment is not treating my car nicely. I have mice inside the car now. I have hopefully sealed it up to stop them. Ugh, I hate not having a garage with a concrete floor.
The plan this year is to get it driveable again. About 5 years ago the heater core went and I bought a new one and when working on replacing I found out the whole HVAC system was smashed up from previous owners. I have looped the house for now because the best fix is a Vintage Air system but that’s $2000. I am going to buy a kit to replace all the steering components because it had a bad shake at 60mph and everything is old anyways.
Here is some video of it running and it’s current state.

At least it still looks nice. There were a couple moments in that second video it didn’t sound too healthy.

i t was still running with the choke on, I think that's why it didn't sound the greatest.

Can’t remember when the last time I was in a car that had a choke was. Didn’t even occur to me.

Lol, yeah. I hate having a manual choke carb. I hate having a carb in general. EFI will happen at some point. In the mean time I should really book on the electronic come carb that I do have for this.
