  • A great moment...she runs, she runs!!

    Been trying to get the motor from my '47 Champ to start for 6 months after it has set up for 10+ years. Finally put the right size battery cables on it and it started up yesterday. Don't have the radiator mounted yet so I only ran it for 4 or 5 minutes. 60 lbs. of oil pressure. According to the speedo, it has 47,000 miles on it. Looks like I'll have to replace a couple of gaskets though. You can see a little steam in the photo.

    Congatulations. That must be a great moment. Is it possible to link to a movie or an audio clip. I'd love to hear the sound.

        A video is not a bad idea...hadn't thought of that. I think you can link in a video to a forum post.

          A great day indeed. Post the video on Youtube and put the URL in the block presented when you click on the video link at the top of the Reply box.

          Just like posting a picture.
