the demon lives

Well, i finally got tired of looking at my bird sitting in the garage....

I needed to put the new quadrant in it.... i did, I put the old rear springs back in until i get some CHE lowers.

I threw the battery in it and to my pleasure it cranked right over like it usually did..  and lets hope that by thursday i can have some pics of my newfound demon


Thanks to Thundr306 in which i owe $5 lol
