Glorious day yesterday! I fired it up and runs. I had to fix a minor gas leak at the pump, and one of the cam oil lines has a slight leak. Other than that, it runs great and everything appears to work, gauges, tranny, speedo, etc.
Those that have purchased a used motor before can appreciate the great sense of relief when you first attempt to start it, and it starts, runs, and doesn't sound like a bunch of marbles bouncing around in a coffee can. (Thank you Weekend Rides!)
I have owned this car for 15 years. I have spent at least a dozen of those years dreaming about this day. I hope to have it back on the road by the end of the week.
I can't wait!
