Congrats Jamie, looks like a solid car, especially for something that was sitting outside for so long.

Check the usual issues from this era: rusty floors and break lines. Is the engine turning over? Check compression in the cylinders. Good luck with the resto, post pictures of the progress and ask questions if you have any.

Your dash looks like you have factory air?

Bill: yes, his data plate (in another post) shows it as one of the factory options installed.
