Have you checked your plugs? It could be running a little lean...causing it to need a little fuel to fire.

Thanks TinCup, I plan on leaving mine unrestored for now. I could use some seat covers...if you still have your old ones, would you be interested in selling them? They would sure be a big improvement over the ones in my car. Thank you for the pics. Stan/Mo.

I obviously don't have a problem with anyone standing on or setting in my coupe...but I have a story that is related to to this thread. I have a 1948 H-D panhead that I bought from the original owner 35 yrs. ago. To give you an idea of the condition of this machine...when I bought it...it had...

Ken, That thread was a great help...now I have a good idea of what needs to be done. I appreciate your help. All the best to you and yours. Thanks, Stan/Mo.

I'm sorry I watched it again and I must have blinked, because I didn't see it the first time, but he did put his toe on the starter button. Those things happen when you get old.

Neat video.....Did you notice when the dealer was showing him how to start the car, when he told him to step on the starter button, it showed him pushing on the accelerator? Just wondering if you caught that. Like I said, Neat video.

Im pretty sure that the person that bought that "rusty car" is very happy with every bit of rust on it.
