Thought everyone on the board would appreciate this.
I picked up the new driveshaft for Maggie's '54 Friday afternoon, and got the rear disc brakes on the 8" Mustang axle
finished up yesterday. Today I put the driveshaft in (perfect fit, but it oughta be for $262), filled the TH-400 with trans
fluid, and started it up. I backed it out of the garage and down the driveway under it's own power, this after it's been
sitting for a year and a half after yanking the anemic 223/OD 3-speed.
Sure it only moved about 30 feet, but I'm stoked! I took the time to make a .wav file as I pulled it back into the
garage, with the 'puter mic on the kitchen windowsill. The carb needs the choke adjusted a bit, and I have yet to make
up the Tri-Y headers for it.
Enjoy...
