Glad to see you finally got it to post.

That other thread was nerve-wracking!

 

thats awesome! your neighbors probably love you!! hahaha! looking good buddy

 

Dude, I was laughing my ass off at everyone trying to post that video. I didnt help much, but I hope it was as entertaining for you as it was for me.

 

Solid, my friend. just solid.

 

open header?

 

Yea that was like a circus!!!

Awesome man!!!

 

Congrats - a great feeling to hear them loud pipes come to life - the Gypsy tent in the backround adds that special flavor

 

Love that car...and good for you !!
OH, and I sure like the look on your neighbor ladies face when she turned around to look at you rumbling down the street...Wonder what thoughts she was thinking...
Cheers..

 

right on man!

 

I didn't have anyone complain. One guy from a few houses down stopped by a few days later 'cause he knew I had it running.

Not quite. Header then about a foot of exhaust pipe.

And thats not even my house.

 

No better feeling than running down the road in something you made go, except maybe stopping.

 

Congratulations man! I know just how you feel - I drove mine in and out of the garage under its own power yesterday! Just a windshield, exhaust and a carb rebuild and I'm ready for spring!

 

That's what I need too. A windshield and exhaust....and paint!

 

isnt paint the stuff they use to destroy the beautiful original patina on our old cars...

 

Good going, cheap thrills are pricelesss some times. Great lookin little club coupe! Blue and white looks super together. Keep on rockin eh! ~sololobo~

 

good job!

 

keep driving it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ya, that stuff. But I didn't have any beautiful old patina to start with.

The body is going to be a almost the same shade of blue and I havn't decided yet what colour the roof will be.

 

YES! Love the sound of a Chevy six roaring back to life. Keep up the great work and enjoy the ride!

 

Thanks for the encouragement.
