Yep, just a few steps and most of them would spring to life:
* take the carburetor apart and clean it with Gunk and rebuild with a new kit.
* pull the spark plugs, clean them and squirt some kerosene into the cylinders
* install a used battery
* pop the top off the distributor and clean the contacts with a finger nail file
* disconnect the fuel filter, clean and blow out the lines
* rap on the starter a few times
* mount a couple of used tires/patch a couple of tubes
* add water to the radiator (and oatmeal if it leaks); tape up any leaking hoses
* pour in 5 gallons of new gas
* fire that puppy up ...... you got yourself a running machine
