We finally got her to start on her own! Embarrassingly, it only needed some more fuel. Apparently, the gallon and a half we initially added wasn't enough to make its way into the pump, the tank must've been completely dry.

It had a grumpy start after hibernating for so long, but we couldn't believe how well we ended up getting it running! Unfortunately, the transmission left us stuck in the garage, but we're going to add some fluid and see if it'll make it down the road.

We finally got her on the road, but it didn't go quite as expected lol.


I can't wait for the next stage of this build...
