Elliot, why can’t you fix your motor??? That is exactly how alot of us started off. We have a good number of members that are very familiar your make and year motor. Buddy, if you can turn a wrench and screw driver, you are half way there.
If your motor is stuck, then we can help you out. Once your motor is unstuck, then we will help you investigate your compression, magneto system to check for spark, and help you clean and set your carburetor. Your motor may be stuck just from sitting all these years. The rings and internals could be stiff from lack of oil or old fuel mix that has hardened into coke.
