Default Too much rain = wont crank... Ideas?

Hi all,

I am a bit perplexed. I have had to keep my cobra outside, under a car cover, for the last month due to remodelling. Unfortunately this has coincided with the monsoon season we have had lately here in ATL. This, and not being able to crank her for a few weeks, has left me unable to get her started. The battery is strong, starter is working, & she even turns over good, but no cranky.

I now have her back in the garage and she should be bone dry after the last few days, but still no cranky. My guess is fuel starve or corrosion on the firing components. Here's where I need the advice... (cause my "mechanical" skills are at their border when it comes to electrical and fuel systems). What would you do next? I thought about "priming" the carb with starter fluid, and I already took a hair-dryer to the distributor.... I'm flumoxed!

Thanks for any advice you have.
