Anyone from St. Louis Area? Looking for some help with my 122. 120-130

Hello Fellow Brickboarders,

Here's the story. I currently live in Chicago, but have had a 1966 122 in storage in Fenton Missouri for the past 5 years. (Long story, but basically was that it was much cheaper to store there than in Chicago until I got a proper parking spot). Well, I finally have a place to keep it up here and would like to retrieve it this summer.

I *could* have it transported up, but that's not much fun. Rather, I'd like to get it roadworthy again and drive it home. Here is where I am asking for help.

Is there anyone in the St Louis area who would be interested in helping me for a couple of hours to bring it out of mothballs? It's all normal 122 stuff we all know and love so well- purge the fuel system, charge the battery, chase down any wiring problems, and either bleed the brakes (or replace the calipers if I shear the brake nipples.) Would be a few hours of work, and I'd reciprocate in kind (beer, food, free labor, etc). I had it running last year, so know that the drivetrain is healthy.

If your interested in helping (or even stopping by to point and laugh) please let me know. My schedule is pretty open over the summer (benefit of being a teacher).

Best, Jim
