Arrived in California - Sunday August 9th 2015

After a few weeks of waiting "she" arrived today smoking and out of gas.   The team that drove the enclosed

auto carrier had to move her around a few times during drops and ran out of gas twice.   Not sure why they didn't make sure she
had a 1/2 tank of gas when she was loaded.    More than likely it was for safety but who knows.    Here is a shot of her being unloaded this evening.     After sitting for a few days, she rumbled to life - loud almost like she had open pipes or glasspacks.    The sound and smoke brought a few neighbors out of their homes when we pulled her into the garage. 

Need to purchase a gas can and get some gas ASAP.   Not a good start.   My wife said,"I guess I need to get used to  having a hot rod around again that runs out of gas or leaves you stranded."   Not a good start.

Onwards.
