Betcha it starts up fine once you do the things you mentioned on your 
website.
You might also consider:
1. rebuild the carb
2. disconnect the fuel lines from the tank, carb, and fuel pump; fill 
the fuel lines
     with brake cleaner (use hoses to raise the level of the lines at 
each end,
    pour cleaner into one hose) and let sit a day or so, then flush them 
with an air hose
3. replace the spark plugs, rotor, and distributor cap
4. change the oil/filter and use an oil pump primer tool to flow oil 
through the engine
     before trying to start it
