It's ALIVE !!!!

Fired up the T-Bucket today, purred like a tiger. The only major set back is the transmission oil cooler is dead on arrival. Had a pin hole in a weld on the end cap, transmission fluid all over the place when I shifted into Drive. :rulz: Called the good folks a Spirit, another on the way, think I will pressure test it first before installing. It doesn't take allot of transmission fluid to make one heck of a mess :welcome:. Besides that, all went very well.

You get an "Atta Boy" Duke. Bet you'll light up the neighborhood tonight with that smile.

Great job, Duke! Nothing like that first purr. You done good, man.

so... you going to post a video of this alleged first fire up?

 

[Duke]

I would post a video, but the digital camera I have isn't that great for vid's; it would be very short - not much memory. But I get time I will give it a try and see what happens. But, now I have to cut the lawn - I may have to bail it up and sell it for hay - can't cut grass when there is T-Bucket start-up to do !!!

Well what's the problem... as long as the driveways is clear! Anyway, glad the first start-up went well! That's like always the best feeling!
