Christmas came early. 1990 Zephyr 550

Found this almost homeless Zephyr on Craigs List. It runs okay but I can tell the carbs are gummed up because the floats stick and it leaks gas every time I move it. I will tear into the carbs when I get my next day off. Hopefully this pic will load.
Cheers!
Grant.

Nice save. You'll love the miles put on that beast!

Before you try starting it again, do it a favor, and change the oil and filter. The killer of engines is the long time of sitting between oil and filter changes, and no telling how much fuel and moisture is mixed in with the oil over it life.
