My Father Just passed away I need help ASAP would like to have his ZR1 in the Funeral

[alnukem]

My father passed away on Wednesday. He left me his 1991 ZR1. It has been garage kept in a heated garage with no moisture and was last started in September 2010. I have followed all of his wishes to a "T" upon his passing. One of his last requests would be to have his car in the funeral. I connected the battery. It rolls over fine, but will not start. I checked for spark and there is some. I noticed the fuel gauge was on reserve and had no bars. I then added 5 gallons of fresh gas. I heard the fuel pump kick on and put pressure in the line, it rolls over, but still will not start. Against my better judgement, I gave it a shot of starting fluid. It did start for a brief moment and then shut off. I'm sure it is a fuel problem. I'm wondering if something has shut the fuel off in the computer system. I only have a few hours this evening to try and quick fixes to try and get the car running for the funeral tomorrow. The car only has 14K on it and it has been started often and warmed to temperature throughout the past 2 years. The plugs are not filed. My email address is sampiccinini@yahoo.com. Please respond to this post and my email with any help. I am posting this through a friends membership who is out of town and suggested I login for help. I know my father is a member, but I do not have his access information. Rest assured, I will be a member on here by the end of the week.
Funny thing, I often asked him if he wanted me to take it for a ride with him and offered several times to clean it for him, he always replied nahhn, the car is fine and it will be yours some day when I'm gone. not really the way I wanted to enjoy the car or cruising, but I thank good for all he has taught me about cruising and cars. I have been told by many of his friends that I grew up in the wrong era and would have the the muscle car era of the 60's. I will always remember the times we shared together and even arguments over cars, engines and performance.
I wouldn't trade those memories for all of the money in the world. Not only have I lost my father, but I have lost my best friend in the entire world. My life will never be the same without him.
Any help to get the car started for his funeral would be a huge relief.
Thank you!
