"......Finally......IT"S ALIVE IT"S ALIVE......."

Yup Bob pretty much my thoughts when I dropped it in gear. Been a long time coming.

Firebird & Pugsy. For currently not having any other place to put the battery I'm pretty happy the way it works out/looks.

Yeah even as short as it was the first time moving a new project is always great...... provided you don't end up walking home . When I blipped the throttle a couple of times I decided the 4.56 gears are going to be a lot of fun.

A couple of minor issues did turn up to add to the to do list. The gasket on the master cylinder cover leaks, and I've got to either get a torque strap on the motor or build a limiter for the drivers' side motor mount.

Then there was the self inflected wound (literally). I was pretty proud of my red metal flake window crank knobs. When I slammed the door on the truck for my test drive this old fat guy figured out that those long pointy window crank knobs were a really bad idea (my leg still hurts)


I took a little time this morning correcting that little problem......after all there are a lot more test drives coming up.
