First Engine Start, painted inside trunk and ran transmission cooler lines

Ok so the first engine start was tonight.  Thanks Peter for the help today, we couldn't get it going, guess the gas was too far away or didn't let it try long enough.  I put a 12" hose right from the fuel pump into the gallon jug and it started up in no time.

Turned out my timing was way off, I had to move the vacuum advanced all the way ahead in order to get it to run.  I'm going to move all the plug wires tomorrow over counter clockwise one position, then put the vacuum advanced back to where it is supposed to be.

Last night, I painted the inside of the trunk and some of the inside trunk walls with POR15, came out great.



THe last thing I did the other night was bend and run my transmission cooler lines.  What a pain bending and running them and then attaching them to the transmission.  Had a heck of a time getting the fittings lined up.
