67 Barracuda - First signs of life in 25 yrs!

And the starter just clicked when we tried to start it. New battery had 60% charge. Put it on charger till it got to 70%, then tried again… and it’s alive!

Did not spin 3 times before it fired up. Have to run it some more tomorrow and set the timing. Need to check the idle mixtures.

Currently it has about 2/3 “oil pressure gauge” reading, the performance gauge was just over 18 lbs vacuum. I had put about 3 gal of gas in tank - gauge came off empty. Heat gauge had just started moving when I shut it down.

Oh, and the belts squeak - got to fix that.
