Well, my son and I have been putting my old car together since last fall. I drove it down our country road for the first time since 1991 tonite. Dam does it feel good. A few more things to clean up then going to the track for inspection

All you folks on this forum have taught me a lot and gotten me interested in pulling this car out of the barn. I can’t thank you enough. I smiled like a kid tonite. Thank you all
 
Congrats on the milestone. I remember reading your “pulled it out of the barn” thread and you and your kid were going to get it running. Great story. Don’t let it sit for another 31 years. Drive the crap out of it and enjoy it.
 
It feels good when you dust the old car off, don't it.
Looks like you were really into it back in your day, nice car.
 
Heck yeah man! Congrats! That's great! We want videos!!!!
 
Man, that's a cool Mopar! And a Big Block? Heck Yeah! Get er Done! Congrats on rolling Her, and it's awesome You and Your Son could share the work and fun! Thanks for Keeping it Alive!!!!!!!
 
Good deal, are you going to reward your son for helping? Hopefully, he gets a turn in the driver's seat! 65'

Grandson for sure one day, as for now I'm retired and pretty much stuck with the build on my own. But I'm gonna make this old Scamp pretty cool...
 
Yep. He has had a turn in the seat! He convinced me to buy a project 1964 Dart convertible Arizona car with no rust to do for a driver streetcar. In his words “what the hell am I going to do with this when not at the racetrack. This is ridiculous. You guys drove things like this around town?” Love it. The car ran low 11s when I parked it. I’m sure it’s quicker now. Looking forward to the new A Body build
