That looks like a good run. Might have to do that some year.

Beautiful day up here today, it was in the low 70's temperature wise. Filled up the Challenger did a few errands around town then grabbed a coffee , cranked the tunes ,and went for a hour long cruise. Got a few thumbs up. Not many days left with this nice of weather!

Glad you got out @Brads70 We're looking at doing one the beginning of the week. Hope it's not the last one for the year.

Felt like the proud greasy kid meme.
Ran it with no issues for better than 30 minutes while adjusting fuel and idle settings.

Beautiful late October day for a run and we had Halloween colours.

Well done Murray! I didn't even realize you'd taken that photo.  :bigthumb:

Finally fixed the leaking fuel return line. I originally used the repop "KV" hose and crimp clamps but the hose was way too big. It slid over the fuel line without any resistance....drip drip drip. Got some 1/4" hose from NAPA and now its dry. What a pain in the a$$ it was to get to the line though. Had to move the exhaust and unbolt the heat shield just to get access to gnaw off those crimp clamps. Took it out for a spin afterwards and everything is running smooth. Now I just need to put the interior together and wiper linkage in.

Don't worry, the other front wheel was chalked.

Continuing to work on the dash, finished putting together my DIY Bluetooth radio, got that installed into the dash along with some additional ground wiring completed (I'm probably going overkill on the ground connections, but with a powder coated dash frame I want to make sure).

I'm waiting for the tachometer that fits into the clock hole. Trying to keep things clean and mostly original looking, so a big tack was out of the question for me. I also have a few Auto meter gauges coming, including the voltage gauge, then I can just disconnect the new amp gauge that I installed, LOL. Getting closer.

Fired it up to prove I could and shut it of after about 10 seconds.
Start was all I needed.
