I had my 70 charger 440 in storage and I went to start it and it started and ran fine. after a few minutes it started to miss and backfire through the carb and exhaust, now it tries to start but won't.

The most likely item suspect is the spark plugs,it may have fouled them out during warm up,and/or your fuel turned to varnish from sitting too long,.......PRO.......

Thanks for the help. I changed the spark plugs and the car started and runs great.
