Welps after 5 years sitting, I got Squash Blossom running today.
Had poor spark so new coil.
Then rebuilt the Bendix Stromburg WW carb
Then tried to start and solenoid burned up and melted the heavy positive end to battery. Replaced solenoid and she burned again, it was the starter.
Got a new starter on Amazon (much better built and lugs longer too)

Starter info said 1966-1990 but contacted them and they said yes fits 1965 too. And it went in much easier than the old one!
Started her and she fired right up!
NOW I am having trouble finding a replacement muffler.
Seems to be the engine size 305 V6
Anyone know of a fit?
I'll check the numbers on the existing one that blew completely apart (gotta figure that out too) but last owner welded it on, so gonna get under there with the grinder!
