Today was the day, my project yellow 1977 MGB was back on the road for the first time since I've owned it.
After I fixed my fan issue I went back and forth in the driveway a few times and then backed into the road for a quick run around the block. Everything seemed good so I did it again getting up a little over 40 in 3rd gear. Seems to be running decent, maybe a bit rich but otherwise ok. It took a couple months longer than I thought but I happy to have gotten here.
The brakes are a little soft so I'll need to bled them again, and I'm going to need to run through the suspension and check the torques but those are all minor things now.
