It Runs!!!!!!!!!!
Been hangin' out on here since '02, met and made alot of good friends. Always enjoyed checkin' out the board. But today around 2:00 pm we fired the 69 up for the first time!!!! Set the time second crank fired right up. Bought the motor in '00 on a good friends word. Complete except carb and my bro-in-law gave me a almost new Edelbrock. I've never been in a hurry but its not gonna be perfect. Still got to finish brakes,hook up the shifter, driveshaft, finish the paint and put the rest together. My 5 yr build is goin' on 7 but my $5K budget is over by a few hundred. Love when a plan comes together!!!!!

Re: It Runs!!!!!!!!!!
