hey guys ive just replaced my 83 front clip with a 85 due to a wreck i was involved in a couple years ago . Now that im done with the body for now when i went to start motor it fired up after a lil carb cleaner but it seems like it wants to choke it self out . I admit letting the car just sit wasnt the best idea but what would me making the car want to choke it self out? any ideas appreciated ..

Your carburetor is probably all gum'd up and nasty from sitting. You will most likely have to dissassemble it and clean it at the least, you may even have to rebuild it.
 
thanks for the info after better checking out the carb it is a lil gunked up i think ima just use my AAA and have it towed to a shop and have a full tune on her done..
