That's a very nice looking car and I had one, a 1951, that must have been the same color but it was a bit larger, being a huge Henney-Packard combination hearse/ambulance!

Anyway, I learned the hard way and was about to say the same thing that Howard said so before you bend any values, don't try to start it. You'll need to pull the head and get all that stuff out of there! Drain the tank and flush it with clean gasoline and flush out all the lines too.

Of course, be sure that the brakes have all new rubber in all five cylinders and that the three hoses are new, then bleed thoroughly.
