Maiden Voyage

Yesterday was another milestone in this project/conversion.  Taking the car for a spin - finally.  I backed the car out of the driveway and drove to the end of the block and back at a whopping 10 mph!!!  Woohoo!  Ok, I didn't have any seats or seat belts installed yet.  I was sitting on a large pillow.  But the point is....it works.  My wife captured it on her cell phone.

The victory felt short-lived because it is a conversion/project, there's still a lot of things left on the project To Do list before it will be freeway ready.  Then of course there's the whole business of getting it licensed and registered.

Great victory but short-lived because I need to continue the restoration of a 30 yr old car.
