After sitting for three years

[Stormy]

 

This week my son and I went to the barn to start our 63/64 Avanti R1. My son , who has been overseas for a dozen years,, is my partner on this more or less time capsule. It has original paint, carpet, and upholstery , as well as mechanics.  All in very fine shape. There was some worry that starting up might be hard, but after connecting the 3EE battery ,after two key turns the Avanti produced a start and even idle.  I guess I just want to express my relief that all is ok.  Daryl
