It's pretty cool when you see cars left six volts. It's only original once.

Had a big smile on my face, really cool. Gonna go through the rest of the electrical to see what else needs to be worked on. But went around the neighborhood several times with no issues. :dance: :dance: :dance:

I'm hoping to do the same with my new toy next weekend. I found big wads of nasty, sticky, thick, tar-like "goo" in the tank. I'm sure it funged up the body tubing, fuel pump, and carb. Still have electrical and engine to check out -- hopefully no big issues.

Nice work! That thing looks cool. When are you going to install new windshield?
