Don't forget you need to properly break that clutch in. Also the transmission. Also the new wheels. Also the new tires. Oh, and the new shifter.
Almost forgot the most important NEW TACH.
From what I read it is best to start at 4,500 rpm and slide your left foot to the left while pushing your right foot to the floor board. When TACH reads 7,200 slide right foot to the right.
Inhale deeply (might need smelling salts) and then change clothes.

Repeat as required.

Sounds like you are ready for a road trip, down to Florida would be about right, blast that big motor and that new M22 and those new wheels to smokin' hot asphalt here ...

And the hood scoop is perfect ...

Your Poncho keeps gettin' better all the time ...

Thank you very much!     Its a driver, unrestored survivor, and without the incouragement of "you guys" on this site, it would be gone, off to any new owner a year ago.. I have a history, with a car identical to this, 43 years ago..  It looks better than it is, and I wish it was a nice as some on this site, but it is a rare "old bird" now, and like it owner is "not perfect"   Keep wrenching and saving our History!!!   Carl 2 of 3
