Default It Runs, It Runs!

I got the 5.0 eng. together and in my 65 fast back, and It runs!!!
It was my first eng. build and first rebuild of a car, had to replace just about every panel and 18 mo of work so far, but it runs.
the Alt. light was on, and no drive shaft and linkage yet, then tires, wet sanding, wow a lot of work left to do,: but it runs now.

Congratulations, that's a great feeling! Do you have the tranny output plugged? Manual or auto? If not plugged, don't run the tranny without fluid for too long!

just upload the pictures to mustang forums.. Click the go advanced button under the quick reply box and then scroll down to manage attachments.. Browse your computer, select the file you want to add and then add it. That way, people like me, who spend most of their day at work on a computer that doesnt allow photobucket can see the pics too!!!
