It's alive!!! Great work Rooster. Is that a stainless steel u-joint going to your steering box? I almost tried one of those, but was not sure about the system it used to secure to the shaft (clamping).

So, um, did you take it around the block? You know, just a slow speed mini shake down to see if everything was o.k. type of short drive. Kinda like Fred`s first cruise. Was the sun out? The MAN no where to be found. You can tell us, we are family, we won`t tell anyone else. We promise.

My first car was a 1930 2dr sedan. Didn`t have a license, drove it to the end of the driveway and then backed up to the garage, lots of times. Congrats, John.

It is almost better than sex, when you hit the pedal on your bucket for the first time. Hell, even the second, third, and fourth time, at my age!!
