i'm new to the forum/site, so bare with this 50's loving female who loves her 1955 Studebaker Commander.
i enherited it from my grandfather and plan to fix it up. i do not know much of anything about cars, so i will most likely be asking stupid questions to all of you.
anyways, any help from anyone would be great!
a friend of mine suggested that i go ahead and purchase a gas tank to replace the one that's in it currently.
my uncle, as far as i know, has been changing the oil regularly but the car hasn't been run/started in i don't know how long (could be over 10 years).
any suggestions on what i should/shouldn't do first?
what to look at/for?
any links/places you can get specialty items from? or are some of the parts just general so i can get them anywhere (remember, i'm new to all of this and trying to learn as i go along!)?
thanks!
