1969 LOTUS EUROPA BARN FIND- DOES IT RUN?? (hidden away 15 years)

This past weekend, Tom and I tried to start the Lotus Europa I purchased on EBAY. Tom is a friend who talked me into this purchase the previous weekend. Watch to see if this engine runs after 15 years of being off the road and hidden away in a southern California garage. I come from owning some air-cooled Porsches, and have no experience with a classic car that actually has a radiator.

I've learned a little bit about Lotus, and the Europa since I purchased this. Truthfully I hadn't heard of the Europa until the day I won the auction on Ebay motorsports.
