My commodore was last plated in 2014 . So it hasn’t been run for a while ,but turns over by hand nicely.

Do you guys find that there is a process that works well for these engines to bring them back to running without tearing them up ?

You didn't mention points, condenser, rotor, cap. Hopefully you had the gas tank cleaned and sealed, or you may be pulling rust up to the carb. Brakes - new wheel cylinders and new master cylinder.

Also plug wires.

this more of a start up list .

The brakes are being replaced from master all the way to wheel cylinders , whole system

Wires were unused in a box so just using those . Cap , rotor condenser also came as new spares in a box .

Tank I hadn’t decided if I was going reseal . No chunks or rust come out when I drained it
