Re: 71 Blue Jay

Thanks guys. It feels great to have it running at last. There are still a ton of little things to be done but at least I can cruse around in it. The week I took off work to put it all together was worth it. :-)

@DD1 - I'm going clear coat all the way... lol.

I'm thinking the carb is missing the divorced choke, It starts and runs fine but it's not cold here yet. I'm not sure if the Carb Shop did something special so it doesn't need it anymore.

Ordering more parts this week so I can start driving it, drum brake hardware, side mirrors, power steering lines, turn signal canceling cam... Would be nice to have signals. Need to fix the mess of wires for the tail lights. My dad had a trailer plug hooked up but then unhooked it all... now it's just all hanging there.
