Thank you 70 Copo, nice to have a back up to what Charley was thinking in terms of spray patterns. The deal is done and after some paperwork the car will be headed north to Massachusetts. The Seller/Dealer has been beyond accommodating with regards to questions, pictures and details. We talked on Wednesday and he said they were putting new plugs in it just to make sure it was running as it as when it was parked in his garage, kind of refreshing. Could have just as easily sent it up and let me deal with it. Carb has been rebuilt, new fuel, new fuel pump and it sounds pretty good from the virtual test drive we did. This car was on Barnfinds in April 19 and I was watching it on ebay, it went up over $20k but he said he was looking for "stupid money" at the time and decided to hold on to it. A year later I found it on Hemmings and figured it was fate. Be a car I really don't do too much to, drive it and pick at any mechanical gremlins that pop up, sure there will be a few but intend to leave it as it is for the most part.
Thanks again for all of the response, details and inputs on the car, really helped me get this done.
