... the engine in the new Whitephrog cranked briefly. First time since 1973 for an engine setting in this particular car. Oil pipe leak at the Dual Gauge. Water leak somewhere maybe the water pump. Regardless, it was nice to hear the sound.

Found the oil pipe leak. Just didn't have it tightened properly. Now to find the water leak.

Made me realize that I need to go around and check all the nut, bolts, fittings and connections.

Working toward being ready for the Blount British Car Club show in Townsend, Tennessee May 14.
