Pulled in the 67 notch 2/26/18
Today she pulled out under her own power. Still a few kinks to be worked out. Sticky clutch pedal, door glass install, passenger seats, haha. The drivers seat track and trunk lock were both tested extensively and both bound on most recent install. Luckily the trunk locked open.

Feels good doesn't it! I remember when mine drove out of the driveway for the first time. Like when my kids took their first steps! Lol 65'

I apologize if pix aren’t chronological. I’m still not used to the camera phone ordeal, but I try to remind myself to take as many as possible. The fact that my camera screen glass on ny phone broke while on the barn floor. So I can only take decent pictures in certain modes

Thanks Steve! This is such a beautiful network for these cars. And to think, I learned how to wrench on 73-87 chevys! Bought a big block dakota, that I still have, 3 different motors later, and I was struck by the pentastar
