right on thanks guys, i didnt get a chance to come online before i worked on it though, we ended up getting it going just fine, yet.. i still do not know what it was that we did that got it started. we took the starter off and tested it... it was good so we put it back on, the alternator we tested was bad...but i've been able to start a car with a bad alternator and a new battery before... so we got a new one of those, the starter relay switch was still good after testing a new one in it after we got it cranking over and then the old one again.. same results. And finally the only other thing we did to it was spark plugs. so either the new alternator, or the spark plugs got it going. My brother said it wasnt even making a sound when he first tried to start it with new battery. But hey we figured it out either way, and it seems to be purring like a kitten even after sitting for a few years. I do hear some sort of air leak though, we'll tackle that another day.
