Default 1966 S-type member

Hi everyone,

I'm in San Francisco and have a 1966 S-type that hasn't been driven in probably 30 years. It's garage-kept and without any rust, but of course the mechanics need sorting out. It was last started about 10 years ago. Current issues are the fuel pumps are unattached and one of the last things done was repairing the pickup tube in one of the gas tanks. I'll be posting pictures in the Classic Saloon / 340 / 420 forum and look forward to your comments. Thanks!
