Awesome job Ryan! Great milestone in your build.
Wish I could be in Chicago this year to check it out in the flesh.

I posted the actual start up video, not an edited BS video, the little issues are on a short list.

The clang sound is external and only audible on video, I think it is the heat shield.

The belt is a 50 dollar piss off I bought the super expensive Q.... belt and it is S shaped, anything over idle and it rolls over :-(

Brakes rear flex line is no good, leaks without even pressing the pedal :-(

Driveshaft is bent, :-(

Semi-Minor issues, but huge win overall today!!!

Huge progress!!!

Tomorrow the painter will polish the car, and install the steel wheels, and whitewalls.

It`s all part of the process.....I am glad you took my advice....now you do not have to push the car into MCACN Building. I know you are HAPPY!

Tomorrow you make her shine

Fantastic work Ryan.......and with a lot of good people helping along the way.

I look forward to seeing you and the car in a few weeks!

BTW......don’t sweat the small things, the hard part is behind you now.
