My condolences on the passing of your FIL, Sean.

Car is coming along nicely. Congrats on getting it running. You should consider wrapping the battery cable in convoluted tubing or securing it to the floor just to make sure it doesn't chafe.

Keep up the good work!

I thought about using adel clamps but I also like the idea of the convoluted tube.

Here is a video of the engine idling.

And one revving it up.

Good job. I can't tell with my speakers but was the exhaust popping after you revved the motor?

Yes it does.

Exhaust leak?

This past Saturday (2016/04/02) I was able to move the car on it's own power. This hasn't happened in over 16 years. The next goal is to get it road legal in the next four week.
