Ok, I just came back from the storage where my car is kept.  I took the 8 spark plugs out and they were all black and corroded!!!  I am sure they have not been changed for many decades.  Well, I took them off to spin the engine.  Unfortunately, the engine is jam.  I guess after 20 years sleeping, it's not something surprising.  But I did filled the spark plug holes with WD-40 and I will try again in a couple of weeks to see if it spin.  If not, my garagist will unjam it manually so I dont bust my starter.
