Well after struggling for a few hours trying to get my new to me '74 D-Jet 2.0 fired up I am happy to report that it runs.....turns out that I installed the plug wires on the distributor cap off by 90 degrees...doh !!!!
I still have to install the shift linkage and a few other little items before I can take it for a spin..... Oh, there is some bad news to report...I had my battery charger on the roof, it slide off during a backfire and put two dents and removed some paint on the body near the sailpanel.......ouch....amazingly, I not get too upset and just shrugged my shoulders and called myself a dumbass (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) It's nice when the car is not too cherry.......
