My first drive, it was short, out of the trailer and up to the garage.
Felt good after 3 1/2 years.
I so wanted to stomp the gas pedal and leave marks on the driveway.

one neighbor stopped by and said "What Monster did you created?"

 

Nice project. Major milestone acheived. On to the next.

Next on the list, brakes?

 

That looks and sounds great. Nice progress -must feel good to have this step done.

 

Well that's a beast! Sounds great too!
Beautiful... that's got to feel good!

Nice job! As you know I did the same thing yesterday. Was your smile as big as mine At first I thought you only had reverse gear but then you went forward Hope you have a big back yard. You kind of accelerated at the last minute Keep up the good work.

 

Looks and sounds great, I love that Beast you created.

 

Nice! Not sure how you kept from going down the road for a cruise.

 

Love it when the build comes to life. Nice work

 

I read the post before seeing the video. When I watched the video I thought the dark strip on the road was from when you stomped on it. LOL. It looks good have fun with it and get it on the road.

 

My buddy that helped me build it talked me out of it,new motor with 30 mins of run time.....it’s time will come, don’t break it now

 

Awesome! I 'drove' my 54 yesterday for the first time too!
