It looks great,
I've seen this done on some of the projects that I have done or been apart of before you start putting miles on it have a photographer shoot the truck. I'd do this for a couple of reasons one just to hang on the wall and give a framed copy to the shop, also for documentation of the completion for your records.
Again congratulations

Thanks. Good suggestion. I am going to organize my hundreds of pictures into a binder over the next couple of months...when I get energized.

Over at my buddies's place. He's a mechanic. Spent the morning fine tuning the carb and setting the timing. Was drinking way too much gas and very sluggish. Was also being a real b%#*h starting when warm, but that seems to be a real trait in older Dodges. After many test runs we seem to have it running well. Probably going to need even more fine tuning. Was fun to have it out on the road. Lol, takes a little getting used to like any new vehicle.
