This is in regards to the June 1991 issue pertaining to the article “Murder She Threatened”. I am the son of Mona & Jim McMurtry of who the article was written about. My father passed away a few years ago and I inherited the 64 1/2 Mustang 200 convertible. It has been setting idle and under wraps for a few years and I can’t seem to get it started. I have tried everything… all is working perfectly but it just won’t turn over. Even priming the carb works a little but it still stops. I need some help and would like to talk or have someone look at it to see if they can spot the problem. I live in Rancho Cucamonga, CA.
Any Help would be greatly appreciated. I want to get it back in the “Show Business”.
Mike McMurtry
