Congratulations. First starts are nerve racking, exciting, and relieving, all at once. Welcome to the "tweaking" stage.

Popped into the shop for a minute earlier to see if I have some parts I need tomorrow and snapped this picture on my way out. My security light makes for some dramatic lighting lol. *Hopefully* this will be one of the last pictures of it inside for a while.

I got it home! Still have a few bugs to work out before it can drive more reliably. It was dying at stops and the trans is starting in 3rd when our in drive for some reason.

Thanks! Been doing a little carb tuning and trying to figure out what’s going on with the trans. I believe I’m having an issue with the governor on the trans, as it’s starting in 3rd gear when put in drive and doesn’t automatically downshift, either. 1st and reverse also feel like they’re slipping, so I think a band adjustment needs to be made.  |

Do you have the trans shift lever properly adjusted? Should be a Torqueflite in that car, which doesn't use a modulator valve.
