FIRST FIRE !!! AMC 367 - '69 AMX #11,856

IT STARTED TUESDAY, FIRED FIRST TRY after a couple cranks, manually primed fuel bowls.
No leaks so far, ran great for 25 minutes, had full exhaust hooked up and yet
"only 2" nieghbors stop over to "complain" 15 minutes in, I said over soon, 10:45 pm.
So it runs, did it with car still on jackstands cause of the Master Cyl "opportunity".

Anxious to set it back down on the ground and drive it, but alas, brakes first.
