Out of the garage and onto the street for first time since 71. Took  it to the gas station ($85) then about a 4 mile shake down with a chase vehicle behind.
No leaks or overheating. No brake lights.
Small fix!

Hopefully, it is the brake light switch or loose wire, not in the turn signal switch.

Getting ready for Carlisle, painting the pan bolts that got scratched up when changing the gasket. Wiping down underneath.

Wish I had a lift!
Haven't gotten the bottom dirty yet,  but I don't look forward to crawling around under there.
