Finally Started my car.

I spent yesterday cutting the brackets off of the rearend for my project. I had never used a cutoff wheel before. That thing could be deadly. I am glad I bought a full face shield it cuts into the steel like hot butter. I still have a lot to do. But I am having FUN

Oh, now I understand... I though you'd finished it, and were "started" the car... as in, starting the engine.
