Aaron for starters, get the H into a shed or at least cover it with a 20 x 20 foot tarp. It is probably restorable, especially since it had a rebuild in the mid 70s. More than likely it is stuck though depending on how well the exhaust was covered. If you are wanting to find out if it is stuck before you start investing funds, pull it SLOWLY with the transmission in 5th. and let out the clutch slowly.

Several of us have rebuilt Hs or Super Hs over the last year or two. Let the wallet draining begin!
