1968 Daihatsu Hijet Engine Start Up, YEAH!!

Heres a video of the second time we fired up my Daihatsu. Its amazing, this truck has been sitting so long there are birds nests in the control arms and the tires are rusted to the rims. The engine stopped in the video because coil wire came loose. Anyways we need to get the motor going again and let it run to burn out the old varnish. I wish there was a carb rebuild kit.
