I Drove It!

Drove my truck for the first time!!! Got it in Sept of '09. spent many a late night working and banging, wondering what the heck I'm doing to it, and hoping it'll drive someday. Well it happened! took it around in the pasture today. The brakes need to be bleed some because they're kinda soft but it stopped OK (never shifted from first) anyway I was pretty excited, first time ever to drive a 67-72.
I got a video with my phone (really poor quality) but I'm not sure how to upload it. Tomorrow if I drive it I'll get a good video with a real camera.
