73 Grande Restoration
#1
I just got a 73 Grand the other day. I inherited it from my grandmother, who passed away sadly.
My end goal is to make the car look stock again, Key word LOOK. The fun can be under the hood. but I have a-lot of body work and headaches trying to figure out whats wrong with the car and why it wont start.

First off, the car has been sitting for upwards to 4-5 years, so I'm not going to be the idiot who blows up the engine (351c) trying to start it just to "Test" it.
I'm not really good with cars, and when I look under the hood a lot of it looks foreign to me still, so this sounds like a fun project.
