Nice job Cody. On the night that I got my 49 to run for the first time in over 20 years, I backed it out of my garage with one very dim headlight and not a sign of a brake. I drove it all the way down my almost half mile driveway and actually up the road about 200 yards (I live in a very desolate area with basically no traffic at night) to my neighbors house. He was shocked. I know that feeling.
