Firebird77 - I rolled a bit over 2400 miles since I got the speedo working. Probably put 200-250 miles on before that. It's a fun car to drive and draws attention wherever it goes. I probably would have driven it a lot more, but my wife has a lot of trouble climbing in and out of it (back problems), so we drive my coupe to most of the cruise-ins we attend. I hope the new owner enjoys it as much as I have. It's going to San Antonio, Texas.
Roger and Jerry - Thanks for the tips. I will look at both of their sites. I'm anxious to get back on this project!Jim

Jim, regarding Downs you need to look at what they've done in the past ten years as opposed to what they made earlier. Recall that their transition to new ownership (Legendary?) didn't go so well, and the Downs family went to court to claw back the physical parts of the business. There's a pretty good run down on that story over on The HAMB - https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/...siness.349041/Roger
Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
