Finally!! It runs

I have always loved flatheads and this past fall decided to build a Flathead powered hot rod. Well today was the best day for me , I go to see and hear my flathead come to life! Its a mild build 53 merc motor but has a Ford crank early heads . This thing runs so smooth I think I could stand a quarter on edge while reving it up and it would stay put! Cant wait now to get it home and in the rod. Oh I did all the polishing myself by hand
