What a hilarious and effective way to pack a shipment. We used to be knee deep in stuffies when our kids were little... and I was crushing up newspapers?? I sure missed that opportunity.

Wipers work!!

After work tomorrow off to the shop for alignment, and check for safety.

She starts easy!! Even after sitting, spins over fast and grabs quick!

The shop has been helping me get that last few details done without racking up mucho costly hours.

They will spend a few minutes tomorrow to get one more light working and she should be on the road tomorrow night.

Hagerty insurance is already in place.

Plates will be sorted out after I get the safety check paperwork.

I should be cruising this weekend!!!!! Holy-snappen-ole-snap-On-a-vich!!!!!

So this happened!!!

She is on the road, Plates, sticker, insurance, safety check, all good.

Took the family for a little cruise, and now my mind is blown.

I took the kids for ice cream but will wait till my Beautiful, Cutlass loving wife can attend for my ice cream. (Momma had to go to a friends right after this video)

I want to tank my family and all my friends!! Especially those that directly helped me progress. (Progress is Paramount)

Congrats Ryan on your first ride.
With the family too Awesome.
Hate to be a bugger as I don't know Olds like you do but isn't that steering wheel upside down? LOL
Enjoy many memories coming in your beautiful ride.
Reserve one night to come by my house and go to my local cruise with me one Thursday.
Cheers

Thanks Dan!!

Your help at every single turn has been the greatest influence to move forward over and over and over again.

I learned so much and enjoyed every aspect of the resto. (I am hooked)

I can only imagine your excitement Ryan. It has been a complete joy to watch you and your dad start this project and you and your family complete it. The video shows just what that us all about. Congratulations!

If Danny is correct on the steering wheel being upside down the likely error was in the installation of the CV cup on the topside of the intermediate steering shaft. It is possible to assemble that 180* out and that would cause your potential issue. That is the only place I can think of that will cause this.
