Just got my 30 tudor started today went thru everything engine sounds real good had a scratching noise turned out to be a bracket no big deal barely turns over before firing right up. I have gone thru this car from front to back new brakes and drums. New seals in the rear end, new wiring put on turn signal. New seals and bearings in transmission. Rebuilt steering gear shocks the works. Added turn signals as well. No gas leaks from new fuel lines gas gauge or carburetor either or oil leaks. Had some issues previously but they are all resolved now. Wife will be home from work and she will be glad to hear it is running as well. Lots of advice from several guys here on the forum Mitch and Tom especially along with a few others. appreciate all the help and thanks.

You're not finished yet. Get in and drive the wheels off it. Have fun while you do.
