I towed this unit home across the country from the desert. After repairing the radiator and evacuating the fuel system of its very stale gas, the thing actually runs on its own! Cooling fans come on and it holds pressure and all seems right with the world. I did notice what appears like a small oil seep from under valve cover or head, but otherwise she is running! Not bad for a 6+ year stored unit.
Now to fix a broken brake line, fix a few gauges, replace the windshield, tires and get her inspected.
