Success!

So I went down to my shop today to do some junk like pick up a door for the gto and my dad & bro and I decided to try and start the '49. It RAN! ok for a few seconds and mostly on starter fluid, but it ran, had oil pressure and no funny clanging or rattles. Even the carb seemed to work pretty well. I don't think it had been started in 20+years. Maybe it'll make it to the round-up afterall.

Sounds good man. As long as it starts up in the morning drive it. What I always say is if the motor fires up drive it. Good luck. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif
