Finally got it back on the road

After doing the frame off about five years ago. I finally got it on the road. Its still pretty loud, going to get 2.5" exhaust on wednesday, but it is drivable. Still have lots of little things like door panels, engine fine tuning, couple of electrical bugs, but i can at leadt enjoy it on warm days.

Re: Finally got it back on the road

Thanks for all the comps. I seriously thought about starting a build thread named "the last 10%" because I had completed the majority of the work years ago but life kinda sopped me from finishing it. I still have a ways to go. The tires are 265 60 r17.
