Van sitting for 10 years will it Run? 1970 VW Bay Window Bus. Van camping project

In this video I'm trying to start a 1970 VW Micro Bus / Van / T2 / Bay made in 69. The van has been sitting for about 10 years, the last time it ran was when I started my youtube channel and took it for a drive and made a crappy video lol. I would like to try and fix the van up to do some off grid van camping. I had to pull the van out from where it was sitting because the shifter wasn't working and I needed space to work on it. When I pulled the van out from its spot the camera died and I missed the shot sorry. To repair the shifter I had to cut out a patch and bolted it to the shifter than I screwed it into the frame. The starter wouldn't work until I tapped it lightly with a hammer, the fuel pump is dead so I bypassed it and directly and hooked up a boat tank with a primmer bulb. The oil was clean and full and I got oil pressure before starting. Because the van is in such rough shape I'm planing on patching it up but not doing a full restore due to time and cost. Big Thanks to my Subscribers hope you're all doing well, I have more videos coming. If you're new to the channel ‪@kurtscottage‬
