Congrats, James! Somehow it becomes all worth it when you hear the engine
actually running.
On my frame off restoration, I got the chassis done and planted the engine
in place. Everything was clean and shiny, but I was easily a year away
before driving the car since the body tub is still on a stand awaiting
attention. I needed to hear that engine so I hooked up enough components
and got it running sitting there on a rolling chassis. Kinda odd looking
to see it without a body, but it sure did the heart and spirit good to hear
it 'alive'.
You're almost done!
