OK guys and girls (don't want to be accused of being sexist ... 
I have two daughters, both with black belts).

Tiger has been in storage for about a decade.  No preparation.  
At least it has synthetic oil in it.  < 1k miles on a 
professionally built 302.  I assume all the gas has turned to 
jello and the tires are not suited to even drive around the 
block.

Two questions:

Need to transport it from L.A. to Sacramento area ... any good 
transport outfits (or other alternatives)?

What do I need to do (and how) to get it running again.  I 
assume rebuild the Holley double pumper and flush gas tanks 
and lines.  It was running fine when it began hybernation.

Thanks.

If you care:  I quit a perfectly good job to go back to medical 
school and I completed my residency in Radiation Oncology 
this last June (fortunately, my wife had no idea what she was 
getting in to when she agreed).  Am now gainfully employed 
and would like to get my adrenaline pump back on the road.
