Amy,
I'd make sure you have the plug wires in the correct order, check the
timimg as well as you can (not sure if the 67's were static timed) and make
sure you're getting fuel to the engine. After my 62 had sat along time the
float bowls were empty, and trying to get them filled by turning over the
car was a loosing proposition, even with starting fluid spayeed into the
carbs. I ended up cutting a length of fuel hose, slipping it into a funnel
and pouring about a cup and a half of gas into it. Fired right up after that.
Godd luck,
Greg
