Wonderful!  

Man, that would be such a huge bummer to get that far and have to go back and rework something.

New milestone! It's alive and first time moving under its own power in 15+ years with an un-rebuilt 302,
Can 't post a video I guess..

Where do you take a home built vehicle for inspection, Wethersfield?
Or do you have an age appropriate vin and title?

Had a title, frame numbers, VIN tag and bill of sale from a "donor" along with a CT  VIN verification form..

Walk in and register "as normal"

That's awesome Ron, more pics soon???

I just got my old 1980 titled in my name. The truck was brought into Nova Scotia in 2007, and had never been registered, inspected, or plated here. It has been off the road for a solid 10 years, it's almost like "importing" a new vehicle...lol. I discovered that getting them registered as an antique is MUCH easier than a regular inspection and registration.

Nice!  How much lift is that?  It looks pretty close to my Bronco which I'm guessing has about 3.5" suspension lift and a 1" body lift

As said looks really good

It had to be hard to cut the body for the rear flares after all the work putting the body together.
I saw a post if you were going to cut them or not but dont remember the answer now I know.
