48ply1stcar Posted June 14, 2014 Report Posted June 14, 2014 My car sat for 25 years. I joined the Army and forgot to get out. I took off the oil pan, generator, Carb, and head. Soaked the cylinders, turned over the engine by hand, then by starter and watched the pistons and valves go up-and-down. When I was done watching the pistons go up and down and cleaned everything and put it back together. You never have to wonder about what to do next - something will break or be wrong and you'll fix that next. Quote
USMC1188 Posted June 15, 2014 Report Posted June 15, 2014 This looks like a great car to get running! I just got a 48 sedan from family that has been in the garage since the early 70s. Once I get it out of the garage, it's game on for me! Quote
