    Ok...

    Yesterday I got my new master cylinder in, new wheel cylinders on all 4, all new brake hardware, shoes, hoses, bleeding screws, fixed the Idle on the RBS 1bbl carb, new (old nice one) radiator, radiator hoses, every electrical issuse sorted out, old nos radio + bezel, carpet in the trunk, emergency flasher, and then...

    Of I went driving and driving for the first time for real and it did shift nicely, did not die on me one single time and everyones eyes was on me (well the comet I guess)!!!!

    And all this because of you all!!!!!

    This is my first car and when I got it I did not even know how to change the air filter!!!

    So thank you all for helping out and now Sweden got their own Red Comet cruising the streets!!!!

    Today feels like the happiest day of my life!!!!

    You really are something!!!! :bowdown:

    Robert.

    I, for one, am MOST happy to hear that it is up and running. It has been a lot of work, and I hope it has been worth the money spent!:thumbs2:
