I got my car home and have started the labor intensive/expensive task of restoration.

I plan on draining the old oil out and saturating the case and cylinders with fresh oil.

Rotate tire in gear to verify not seized.

It'll probably sit like that for a month or two while I go thru car attacking rust preventing further damage, clean out tank, replace fuel lines, filter, repair shift linkage and verify integrity of electronics.


Drain/replace oil again and go for it!

This is my plan of attack before sending off for body restoration. Any advice on my 1st attempt at engine starting would be appreciated.
