Turned The Key For The First Time And......

Vrrrrooooommmmm, It's alive and venting straight out the extractors. What a sweet sound of life. No electric pump, no priming the lines which have been dry for months and the motor had been sitting for about 12 months. A slight adjustment on the timing, a few sharp responsive revs from those S.Us and I was finding it hard to wipe the grin off my face.I still haven't driven it yet and when I do it'll only be around the corner to the exhaust shop, but at least the anticipation is over. Shit I'm grinning again and my hearts pounding,oooops just thought about all the panel work I'm in for, grins gone followed by thoughts of countless hours of sanding,sanding and more f'''king sanding.Oh well I might as well go and finish sanding the front grill. Good fun eh?
