Title: 1970 350 GTR First Start
Post by: Dougger on August 12, 2014, 08:40:28 AM

I kicked over my new to me GTR this weekend. First time running in 26 years.


This one is a bit smokey. Had extra oil mixed in the gas and had just primed the oil pump. Also a few squirts in each cylinder just in case.

This one is after a run around the block. Running pretty good.  I did foul the rhs side plug, but I expected that.

Nope, original seat cover. The only thing not original is the mirror.
