I got the wiring finished, including the MSD box and ignition. Yesterday, I pulled out the cutoff plunger and got 12V to the car for the first time! It's a small step, but for me, seemed to bring the car alive. It was cool to see the gauges stand up, and sit there in the darkened garage looking at the dash lights! Silly? I don't care. And I think I'm only a few weeks away from firing the engine for the first time.
I have gotten much more advise here than I have been able to give. So, thanks to one and all for the help. When I first got onto this site, some comments by the more experienced helped me to focus on what I really wanted to do. Hence, the trade of the Model A for the 55 Chevy. (Thanks Bob P.) And now, I'm really glad I made the change.
Saturday, the wife and I are going down to the March Meet at Famoso. And, dare I say it, I may even get my car down there this year for test and tune! Maybe just because I'm picking up my car hauler today - gotta justify buying it anyway!
