Whats up guys, I just bought a '76 Omega and had a few questions about it. The car is in what I would consider excellent condition, original interior no rips no stains, very minor body damage like small dings with surface rust, floorpans and trunk floor solid no rust at all, front fenders and hood included but not attached same as headlights and front grille. It received a new 350 and 4 speed auto 2 years ago and then the guy died and it was parked in a garage for 1 1/2 years and has not been started that whole time. Where do I start? Good deal for $500? Any tips or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

Also aircleaner has not been on the top of the carb that whole time too.

Welcome to CO. A factory service manual would be very helpful, they are often found on ebay. I say you make a good evaluation of the car's complete condition, including brakes and running gear, get them safe, get the front clip components back in it and see how it runs!

Welcome aboard

I'm with Dan X 2 on the service manual

I would suggest that you start with the engine. Prioritize first all the major about your car and just follow up the others that are not much valuable. If you still have extra money you start modifying it.
