1928 Chevrolet start up after 50yrs of sitting

In 1969 dad rescued this 1928 Chevrolet (10,485 original miles) off a Gippsland farm, he then stored it for a further 41 yrs in his workshop. A few months before dad was suddenly diagnosed with "AML Leukemia" in May of 2010 we spoke about getting it out of the shed, dads said "We'll get it running but we're not painting it all fancy". Sadly this never happened as dad passed away after a 6 week battle on 14th June 2010, I owe dad this restoration so here is my story of "Monty" our 1928 Chevrolet.

1928 Chevrolet start up after 50yrs of sitting

This is a nice little video of how easy these old cars will fire up after sitting for many years..
The gentleman in this video is Ron Beam from San Jose CA USA - The host of http://www.1928chevrolet.com/ which is a very informative site for 1928 Chevrolets also Ron kindly sent me over a few spare parts for Monty free of charge from his large collection a while back so thanks for that once again Ron, they were certainly put to good use..

Love that sound!!
