Re: '68 c10 build

Now for the exciting part. We fired the motor! I'll see if the videos will upload. The first video is legitimately the first time we fired it. Second bump of the key and it lit right off. It jumped around for a few seconds and died. The second video was about 15 seconds later and it was purring like it was supposed to. We have not installed mufflers yet and I was impressed at how quiet it was considering it is uncapped.

We had a small tranny leak on the coolant lines but fixed it. Everything else seems good to go. Good oil pressure, fans kick on, etc.
