It's aliveeee!!!!  aka Traieste!!!!! :D 
First attempt to start the Zephyr after I cleaned the carburettors. What i should have done in the first, since I knew it was stored improperly in a leaking barn for 3 years.
Never cleaned or rebuilt a carburettor in my life before. Pulled them out, cleaned them up after opening with great care. Reused the rubber seals inside it...no problem (except for a purging screw that is now leaking bad).
Next... synchronizing the carbs.
