My '65 Mustang coupe has been garaged at one of my bosses many houses he rents out - last July when I got my fastback to rebuild I parked the coupe in his garage and had been going over there every fortnight or so to take it for a quick spin and make sure it was okay etc.



Been a bad boy though and due to other things - it's winter, busy at work, extension being built etc, I hadn't been over to see it since January ... went over there today - and it started first time ... albeit after the crude fuel pump took several seconds to pump enough juice through ...



Battery is four years old so thought at the very worst I may have had to jump it from the Passat but no - very impressed.



Who says old cars are unreliable?
