Finally drove it, feels AWESOME!

Hey all, just a reminder for those that are stuck, there is light at the end of the tunnel!
In the past 2 years, I've gone from someone who could only change oil and plugs to now setting timing, changing entire brake systems, rebuilding carbs and installing gauges! Just wanted to thank everyone here for their help! If I get stuck I usually check google, get frustrated, then come here for answers/help.

I was finally able to drive "to town" after tons of minor things from lights, brakes, trans issues, engine troubles, etc. I probably would have ditched it earlier, but being my great grandfather's truck, I wanted to invest in it.

Of course, it will never be "done", but man it felt so great to drive down the highway at 55 with the windows down and hearing that I6 purr. I'm still paranoid as hell something's going to fall off and go bouncing down the highway or the steering column will break (won't but just nervous), but the joy far outweighs the fear.

Just saying thanks for everyone's input and don't give up!

Pic was first trip to town for some dog food, maybe should have been the liquor store for celebration!
