Yes, and make sure there is a nut to hold the steering wheel on! (don't ask me how I know this!) A makeshift seat belt is also a good idea.

Re: Temp controls
LOL, that car looks familiar, and yes I did add a steering column bracket to it before taking it on the road. Even with the support it had a little wiggle that i didn't like. I had to disconnect the fuel control rod cause every wiggle effected the throttle. I have some more pics of it if that helps. However I did not do a seat belt because I wanted to make sure I could bail if needed and I wore a motorcycle helmet instead. Although I probably would have gone down with my ship so to say. Just don't whip around any corners and you will be fine. The only down side to driving the car like that is I'm now obsessed with finding a roadster next because how great it felt going down the road open like that (its currently a 4 door sedan).
Good luck and have fun! Bob NJ
