I had replaced the clutch master and slave cylinders but had had some trouble getting the system properly bled. My buddy Tom was a great help again. Thanks to him we got the clutch working well and actually took the car out for a maiden voyage. Everything went well with the exception of having to bump start the engine after stopping for gas (battery may be shot). Also found teh driver's side front wheel to be heating up. Looks like the brake may not be fully releasing. Looks like I have my next project.

With my wife standing by with a can of starter fluid and a fire extinquisher I got it started!!! It runs a little rough...but it runs. As soon as I get the clutch working we'll be ready to drive
