I thought this day would never come. Got the plates yesterday, but all afternoon into late this morning we had serious thunder storms. Then it got nice and I fired the Carryall up for the test ride. I must admit, it was a thrill after all the work. First time its run under its own power in decades. Compareing it to my Bumblebee, the Cummins power is awesome. To my surprise, once rolling and in 3rd gear, its quiet. You could hold a serious conversation or listed to CD's. The entire ride is better and more soild feeling, probably due to the weight difference. And I added a lot of steel. Glad I had it registered with the original weight before I started. In NY we pay license plates by the weight.

Now a few small things, Battery Box cover, cover sun visors and align the front end on my friends Hunter Computer Alignment Rack.

Walking into the shop this morning, knowing a work was over, was almost a lonesome feeling. Its like the old friend who drove me nuts is now silent.
