Crap! First real drive didn't go to well at least nothing blew up.
Throttle cable to carb ball linkage keeps popping off and pedal is binding up with the carpet.
Things to fix!

My worst 1st drive was when I backed out of the shop (it had a pretty big down hill grade outside of the door) and went to hit the brakes and the pedal went to the floor! Wouldn't pump up! The brakes worked great when I put the car in reverse to back out. The new ride rolled down the drive and into my car trailer. That bent the NOS lower rear valance. The new master cylinder was defective, and that was 20 years ago! Was probably the best place for it to fail, but it sure ruined that first ride.

Thinks to fix!

At least it's small items that need tended to!

Nice to see a motion picture. Got rattles?

Yup got rattles but not too bad.
It's really quiet but that's Ok.

In my humble opinion rattles and a bumpy ride tells you you are in a hot rod.

Them rattles are just letting others know you're coming! I figure If mine quits rattling, I'll go back and look for parts...

Poking along in a rusty old truck you built yourself. Life is good sometimes

I never could get the doors on my coupe to stop rattling!

Swap meet finds this morning. Spare Buick drum, a Vega cross steer box in case I change steering, and the illusive 15x6 Chevy wheel. Now I can get rid of the adapters on the rear differential.
