Howdy folks!

I have a '51 F-1 that has been sitting for far too long and it's time to get it back on the road. When I bought it there was already a 350 in it. (Yeah, I know, someone removed the flathead and put a Chevy motor in) I have to work with what it has though. There was a fire due to a gas leak at the base of the carburetor so I need to replace some parts. The wiring harness was scorched so I guess that's my starting point. While I'm really good at taking apart and putting together, I'm not a troubleshooter so I'll probably have lots of questions.
