It's a runner. If I knew how to upload a video I would. It sure sounds like a tractor engine.

The oil gauge is smoked I think. I tried 2 different sending units and the needle didn't budge. I'm going to hook up an oil pressure gauge tonight and see where I am at. First I need to clean up the rat turds and shells that came flying out of the tailpipe.

About 58 psi at idle

I had issues with getting any brake fluid out of my new wheel cylinders in the rear. I tried to suck some fluid through then tried gravity bleeding for a night. Nothing

After dealing with brakes for longer than I wanted I buttoned some parts back on and hit the road for the first time. The old plates had tabs from 2007 on them.
I might be shopping springs and shocks soon but its drivable.
