After about 6 yrs after acquiring non running 76, first time moving under it's own power.
Lots of re-assembly to go yet including most new weatherstripping but feels good to get to this point.
2056 with Dell 40's, WEB 494 cam, 8.5:1 CR kinda loud, but pulls strong with no apparent flat spots. More build thread later
