Hi All and Happy New Year. I have a question that I hope someone can shed some light on and also looking for some "heads up".

I'm not going to get into the history of the vehicle but will say that it has been in the family for 30+ years. For the last nine it has not moved and I have taken on the project to get it going. When I first tried to get the car to move it would engage into drive but not move forward or backward and the brake pedal was stuck to the floor. So I managed to get it towed into the City and to my mechanics. I opted to not fool around and replace parts that I thought should be changed out only due to the age and the amount of time the car has not moved, so....I have ordered a new master cylinder, 4 new brake cylinders (because 3 where leaking), 4 new brake hardware kits (at my mechanics request), the 3 brake line FLEX hoses. I will opt to remove the factory Autolite carb and have it rebuilt. Install a new detent plate along with a new shift lever. For the cars mobility that will be it for now. As soon as the car is drivable I will take it to another local shop to have the tranny serviced. I should add that the car is in great condition. So my first question is: Is there anything else I should take care of immediately while at the mechanics before I pick it up and start doing small things to it. Answer this question as if it was your car.
