1974 Gran Torino Elite Sitting 15 years WILL IT RUN and DRIVE? - NNKH

Part 2 attempting to drive her 2500 miles home here: https://youtu.be/8ci_KZM4lA8 Jen wanted to do a cross country trip so I hopped on FB and found a 1974 Ford Gran Torino Elite in Las Vegas that had been sitting for about 15 years. The owner Oscar got it from his father who was the original owner and due to health reasons had let it sit for some time. Oscar had this and another car shipped to him from Cali with the hopes of fixing both up but never got to the Elite due to lack of free time. So this is the story of us flying out from Pennsylvania to get it running and drive it home 2500 miles. since there was an overwhelming amount of footage I decided on breaking it into part one and part two.
