Got it running!!!!

Yay!!!!! It runs....Finally after sitting for 7 years my 78 runs.Now comes the fun of all the gremlins that have set.Like the gauges dont seem to work except for the temp gauge.Oil gauge reads high until it statrs then reads nothing.Amp gauge seems ok not certain on that.Fuel gauge not working.As well as no tail lights.Brake pedal not returning freely,but hey it runs and runs pretty smooth considering....I will post some pics a little later when I get back to the truck with the camera.
Any input on the gauges or lights would be greatly appreciated...
Thanks......
