Re: whats the first thing you do?

IF IT RUNS then fill it up with gas and drive it!!! Very carefully if necessary, but drive it!

Mine ran so I did that first, then I washed it inside and out, took plenty of pics and sent them to my boyyzz. I started looking through LMC and Jegs catalogs and started adding up the cost of my wish list. After coming back to reality I changed the oil, topped off the fluids, and changed the squeaky rear drum brake shoes.

A new battery box. Plywood, drywall screws, and duck tape a battery box do not make

Re: whats the first thing you do?

The first thing i do with any project is take out the carpet and what ever is underneath and let it dry out. Factory insulation is a sponge and rust loves it.
