A recap.
This was hiding less than a mile from where I grew up, 40 years in a (leaky) barn. Engine was stuck, turned out to be valves. Unstuck with lots of PB Blaster and Marvel Mystery oil. Spark plugs rusted/welded, got them out and replaced. I think parked because coil bad. Wiring bad anyway so wired up for 12 volts. Two wheels are marked 50 and winch, bed is correct and gauges correct so I say it’s a 1950. I am working to find number on frames but so far no luck. Finally bought tires and got them mounted (not in video). Here’s video of first (and second start. I’m encouraged that cylinder walls are ok, no funny noises from the bottom end! She’s a runner!
