OK, thanks for the suggestions. From what I heard Greyhound no longer does third party shipping, and leaves FedEx-UPS and LTL for shipping. I agree, shipping has went out of sight for anything other than a marshmallow, LOL. I might have to list for local pickup unless the buyer is prepared to indenture their first born.

Impressive specs I'll say that. And the website says Autozone & NAPA. I will investigate. Thanks Brad

Murray, you may be right. With one exception every battery has died in storage.

I just use a regular Napa battery. I trickle charge it mid winter to bring it up to full charge and then do that again before start up in the spring. I have heated storage and get several years out a battery.
@BIGSHCLUNK maybe you need Canadian battery. Hehehe.

Wow, that sucks and even worse the AH didn`t come say sorry! Call Hagerty and tell them exactly what happened or you risk being caught lying and that will just complicate things. Accidents happen and whoever is liable should pay, trying to be nice will only get you screwed so let Hagerty do thier job and figure that out. Header panel can probably be fixed but just have whoever is going to do the work make that determination.

Replace all rubber fuel hoses even if the outside looks good, it`s pretty cheap and worth doing every few years anyway as new fuel seems to eat them up a lot quicker.

My line of thought was pulling and capping the vacuum advance to rule it out.
If capping the vacuum advance has no effect, the coil would be the next thing I would look at.

I've had a "Northstar" brand in mine for like 8 years now, heavy and expensive AGM battery . I think Odyssey has taken them over though.
