Took everyone's advice and poured oil in the cylinders, let it sit for 24 hrs and turned it over before putting plugs back in. With a new NAPA battery, it would run just a little when gas is poured in carb. Rigged up a lawn mower gas tank and started the car. After the initial filling the garage with smoke it settled down and runs great.
My next project is brake cylinders, hoses and lines. Next, clean the fuel tank and fuel pump rebuild. Goal is running, driving car by spring. Here is a photo after its first wash job in 25 years.
