Default Its Alive!

After working off and on for the last couple of years, I finally got the old Coupe running again today. Timing Belt on, no gas leaks, no rad leaks, just a bit of an oil leak from the oil pan! Man does it feel good. The car didnt start right up. I had the camshaft incorrectly timed at the start. So I took the oil cap off, and turned the engine over until it was where it was supposed to be. This after about 1/2 hour playing with the Distributor to get it to run. But hey thats the way it goes sometimes. I also bolted the front bumper back on as well.

I will post some pics of its current state soon.

Now I just need to plug the signal lights back on, the grill and go for the safety check. Not to mention liscence and registration.

Cheers.
