Yellow Peril STARTS and RUNS!! 140-160 1973

The battery we bought in 2007 did not have enough soup to crank the Yellow Peril after charging all night.
So I pulled the battery we bought in 2002 from one of the 220 wagons and it started right up!
Seems to idle a bit fast and to be a bit rich but it is running on all 4 and sounds pretty good.
Doing a bit of spot painting, a LOT of cleaning (some of my family is not clear on the distinction between
cars and trash and laundry containers) and reinstalling a couple rubber rings that suspend the rear of the exhaust system.
Will continue posting.
