I did as well.  You cannot put a price on that feeling and exhaust sound.

It's Alive! Well well well. Last time my 67 500 moved on it's own was 1971. Long story that I'll share sometime. 71 is when the engine was stolen. Since I didn't have an engine I loaned my transmission and rearend to a friend. Never got it back. Remember, I was a dumb kid. So it sat without running gear till 2 years ago. It was time to put it back together. Today I started it and drove it out of my shop for about 20 ft. Then backed it back in. Next week is exhaust. What a glorious feeling!

We have all made some dumb mistakes.  Good to know you have it back on the road.  Hope you have many wonderful days of driving.

68krrr.  You're correct. Sort of.
Many offers over the years even as I  tried to keep it under wraps.
But I swear to you, never never did I any thoughts of parting with it.

Now that is keeping the faith!  Glad to hear it is rolling on its own.
