Here are a few pic's of the car finely out of it cage. Have about 25 miles on it so far and working out a few bug's. Most carburetor fine tuning. So it is fun to finely get behind the wheel and take it down the road. Thanks to so many here for help in getting this car back to what it was back in the day.

Thanks guy's. Still a few thing's to work out as always. Nothing major but a few like tuning it with the carb. But it run's grate. Waiting on my back seat cover's then should be done in side the car. Saving up for my mag wheel's and mickey Thompson white lettered tire's. Then it will be the runner I wanted from back in the day.

I know It makes you feel proud when you work on something for a long time and you have good things happen as well as bad things, but then one day she’s finished and you have accomplished something looks good Russ I’m happy for you been a long road, all of us have been there, done that and have the tee shirt
