Learning how to use an English wheel.... fun, but  takes a lot of time. Lots of thinking involved on where you want the metal to go. I have a new found respect for those that have mastered it!  :grinyes:

I'm on the very last few things left to do before I try and crank over the Hemi.

I hope to fire it up on Saturday. Sunday is booked for an obligation.
So if I can't get it ready in time, then for sure next week.

Stay tuned...

Hopefully we'll be able to make the last adjustments on the new exhaust. Hopefully the car will be back on the road early next week :)

No. I have a plastic case with various dollies and hammers maybe there is one in there.

took me a minute to figure out what was wrong with the play button in your video, but I kept trying to click on that road sign anyway to get it to play.  :roflsmiley:

Everything is done now to begin break in except one thing...

She doesn't crank over yet.
No fuel guage needle movement.
Factory AM/FM stereo put sound out today.   :ylsuper:
Headlights, park and Fog all working.

I ran outta time so she'll have to wait for now. 

I'm so happy to see her on her own feet again.

I'm actually quite impressed with the rear speaker sound.
It's not a blast furnace but the sound quality was pretty good.

Hats off Mike, hanging in there for so long and building such a beautiful car (outdoors too...)   :worshippy   
My stereo sounds sweet too.... yesterday I turned it on for the first time while driving, for at least half a minute   :biggrin:
