Love those stories.
Welcome to tripod geometry.
A couple thoughts.

Make sure there's gear oil in the differential. I'ts only like 3 (THREE) ounces.
Oil filter can go in wrong and ruin the engine.
When in doubt, change the oil.
Keep the gas tank full to keep it from rusting
and if you can get it to run without any $, make sure it has all 5 gears
and reverse and you'll have a machine you can pass on to your grandkids.

Any news on getting it to run?
Manuals in the 'world class help' section.
and the search key is great for tons of fast answers.
