Yes, I need to rebuild the carburetor, do a valve adjustment, check for cylinder compression and engine vacuum as well as a cylinder leak-down test. Probably replace plugs, an oil change, etc. There is plenty wrong with the engine right now to make it run rough; I'm honestly surprised it still runs as well as it does, all things considered. A true slant six.

The Dart is an original black & yellow plate CA car. It was built in Los Angeles, and I believe it was sold in San Francisco, but it spent 97-2010 in storage in Fairfield, IA. Went to University of Iowa and drove it while there. Good times.
