Almost Done...

This list of things to do keeps dwindling...

- Heater motor
- Dome light switches
- Headlight switch






So far, everything is working like it is suppose to.  All of the gauges, dash lights and switches are hooked up and functioning properly.  It is really nice to have working gauges...especially the gas gauge.  After this, I might go back and hook the one up in the '40.

As I was checking the functionality of the gauges, I accidentally cranked it and it fired.  So after making sure it had oil and coolant, I gave it a couple taps on the accelerator and it started right up.  The gas was old and you can tell the engine needed to be run, but still, it did run fairly well.  The oil pressure came right up and it sounded good.  There were a couple of little oil leaks that need to be addressed as well as some re-routing of vacuum lines.  It's getting closer...
