Speaking from experience, bringing back wedges that have been stored away is no fun. They like to be driven. The carbs need to be torn down, brakes need to be replaced, hydraulics rebuilt, electrical gremlins sorted, often the clutch is stuck, fluids-hoses-belts replaced, gas tank cleaned, new battery, new tires, shifter bushings, suspension pieces, and then you still need to fix the underlying reason the car was parked in the first place. Better off spending a few more dollars and buying a driver. That being said, I've bought four wedges in the last year that were in a deep sleep. Around here, that is the only way to find a clean body without dropping huge coin on a car, and a clean body trumps all.
