Check out the first response to your post. Good luck with the start up!

Something that worked good for me on a 48 Dodge, take out the plugs and squirt some miracle oil in each cylinder and let it soak for 48 hours. I did that and the car had been sitting for 17 years, and it turned over (jumped with a 12 volt battey) right away.
When it finally fired up ran smooth as a Singer sewing maching.

i tried firing it today, and it sounds like my starter solenoid is messed up, but im not sure if the car is a 6v or 12v, i put a 12v battery, do you think i can burn something if i keep trying with this battery.?
