Smoke in Exhaust

[tom.w.wagner@Central.Sun.COM (Tom Wagner - Program Manager)]

To All:

Can someone tell me if this 
is something to worry about:

History:

        72 TR6

        Sat in Colorado for 6 years and not started

        Told about rebuilt engine 2500 mi. before
        sitting for a while.

        Finally started car in Tx. and emits blue
        smoke continously.

        Car not running properly could be out of time
        or needing a tune job.

Question:

Is this normal for a rebuilt engine to smoke or 
should I be looking at other things
that might be wrong????

Thanks for the help.
