Well sort of. Drove back and forth in the driveway about a dozen times.

But it's a major milestone as it's the first time in 22 years that it's moved under it's own power.

Now to start getting the rest back together.first run lf.jpg

I remember the excitement the first time we moved the wagon. Congrats you are on your way!

Colour will be the original Bahama Green.

You can just see a bit of it on the top of the rear quarter, around the tail lights and on the front splash pan.

Looking good Ted. That is great progress. Looking forward to see continued progress and another 64 SD convertible on the road.

Start of the build thread on this one would have pre-dated Canadian Poncho by more than a few years.
Progress has been slow.
If the weather next Tuesday is without rain in the forecast then it'll be off to the shop to have the convertible top installed.
Gaining momentum.
