Started 1st time in 18 yrs
First time in 18 years my car has been started was today. I bought this from a guy who started a restore 17 years ago, he gutted and stripped it and lost interest. I trailered it home a year ago and started a frame off. Today I filled all the fluids primed the carb, cranked for about 15 sec and it started and idled with no throttle. The open sidepipe headers with no sidepipes on really rock and rolled the garage. Here is where I was last summer and this is how far I am now, paint in about a month then the interior.
