Well finally dropped the car back on the wheels and took it out on it's Maiden Voyage !! This was the first time that the 1929 Has been out under it's Own Power & Able to STOP itself in over 20 Years !! Also the FIRST Time that I have EVER DRIVEN an Antique car as well. Needless to say it was Exciting & Exhilarating...So much had to a FEW extra trips around the block Backing out the GarageTrip around the Block

Yes it was a BLAST...
Thoroughly enjoyed it, to the point I made a few more trips around the block. Took each kid on a trip, so they could ride :)
And Sunday was a Beautiful day here as well so Adjusted the brakes some, and did a few more laps...
