Tribute to dad

Well I got the 340 manifolds today and discovered the left side wont fit with power steering. Thanks for the help on what to do to get the 273 manifold to seal. I was able to drive it today and take it over to show dad. He is elated but could not work the clutch so I took him for a ride. His response its its quick and will be beautiful when finished. I still need to look into fixing the dash lights because only the amp and oil pressure have lights. Then comes the body and red paint he wants. I figure I will go pick him up on weekends this summer and we can just cruise around.
Here are two pics for now.
