So it went from a three month restoration to a 15 month engine rebuild. But it started yesterday! Off to drive at some point today.

Just the time that it all took! It took me a year to do this and I didn't even go through the suspension. Just refreshed the motor. Any snags were related to mistakes I made. Took an extra week to get it running because I didn't have the plug wires correct on the distributor.
