Champagne was consumed.


It moved on it's own for the first time in three years.


Next: the USRT kit isnt setup proper. I get 3-5th and reverse. Also, clutch pedal go's to the floor, and is adjusted all the way out. the cable is new. I'm thinking the bushing on the pedal is toast (the accel pedal has the same issue)

Above issues taken care of.


The car is plated and insured. Just drove it legally for the firsttime in 4 years! Grin ear-to-ear!


Thanks everyone! Couldn't have done it without this forum!
