Messed around with it for a few minutes tonight.

Turn signals now work.
Tag and registration are now legal.

As soon as I get the brake lights working (tomorrow) night I can run it out and fill it up!

Back from Germany for a couple of days, then back off to Slovakia. 

I Stopped by and visited Kevin S. and picked up a trunk panel from him last night. Thanks!

Grandpa has been steadily taking care of all the little things that needed finished.

I know when I was in Heathrow I was so angry because it was right after the Olympics and they took down all the signs that tell you where you are and where to go and put up these big pictures of the athletes...

It's impossible to figure out where you needed to go in that big catacombs of endless and dead-ended hallways...

I actually flew in to Frankfurt and then drove 4 hours south to Ottobeurun. I've already been in and out of London via Heathrow and I must say that airport isn't much fun...

I hope you went to the Stuttgart airport. It a really nice place.
Probably the best airport I ve been .
Avoid England ..... and Fearthrow when you have to go to Europe.

The only equivalent I found was the Gare Centrale in NY .

Still waiting on parts for the fuel pump... Putting the interior together is rather tedious but its getting very close to being complete.

Kevin,  As soon as I get some free time I would like to come take a look at that trunk panel.  Also do you know anyone that has a set of the trim pieces that go on the c pillar? Mine are pitted and look like crap against the new paint.

More than likely you have hit the problem - if the fuel pump isn't pushing, then it's "running lean".  That 327 should have a nice smooth power curve, and really likes a good punch on the throttle when cruising at 60.  You will find that you will have the pedal asking for more when rolling at about 40, these engines like highway speeds and almost feels like the pedal is trying to draw your foot down when doing less than 45.  Yea, I know, excuses, excuses.
