ok various issues;; I will try to work out how to post a photo in time as Dad's car is very pretty. Yes it had been standing for a long while through a long period that my father could not drive. Probably ten to fifteen years. It was sent for fairly regular services during that time. Another issue is my mechanical dyslexia and relative poverty. however the cooling system is apparently in good condition the water being according to mechanic who checked 'as clean as a whistle' I'm not sure how to check actual temperature safely??
