Michael, I want to second Dave's advice.Get the car running first, using the guidelines Dave has mentioned.Drive it a little to see how the steering and brakes work, being careful not to get into any heavy traffic situations, around the block and neighborood type stuff.Then you will know where you stand with the main areas.You can then perform some major overhaul if needed on the mechanical areas and probably still enjoy the A.A major frame off restoration will take some time and the car will be down for a while.Enjoy the car. If the car has been stored for almost 40 years, it may only need some good elbow grease polishing to bring out a shine. |
