Gotta tell someone

I'm restoring (maybe a thorough refurbishing is a better description) a 71 GMC K1500. You ever hit a milestone in your work that just makes you feel good and excited? I did today, I fired up my newly rebuilt engine. I only let it run thru 3-4 float bowls of fuel as the fuel system and cooling systems aren't there. I mostly wanted to see if I had the static timing close. When it started and ran good, it put a smile on my face that's still there. It had approx. 3' of exhaust pipe, and the sound was beautiful. Sometimes you just have to shout out to people who appreciate the things that you do !
