<VV> '65 High rpm when started

[David Iverson]

I have a '65 2 dr. cpe w/ a 140hp/4spd.  Got it back from the paint shop and have been putting the chrome back on.  It ran like a champ on the way home from the shop, but after sitting a mere 6 days in the garage, I charged it up, started it, and the engine immediately went into high rpms with no let down.  I tried starting it a few more times with same results.

Any suggestions?  Thanks.
