40th Anniversary Edition Issues: HELP!!!
This past December, I managed to get a hold on a 40th Anniversary Edition as my very first car (21 M). I absolutely love this thing, but the guys who had it before me treated it like absolute garbage.
The car refuses to start, and I don't know if it's the starter motor or if the seals have gone bad. I have people telling me to give up on it, but I don't want to. Any ideas on how to get her drivable again???
Note: when I try to start it, it makes a wiring sound, but there is nothing from the engine like a standard start-up would be like.

Hi, welcome to the site, you might need a hand from a 2nd person to turn the key.
A few things first battery voltage, before trying to start and while cranking/starting.?
Does the car have fuel getting to the engine?
Spark from the sparkplug leads, when you cranking the engine?
Then you'll need a OBD2 code reader for any codes?
start with these , and well go from there : )
hope this helps.
