Yeah, it only doesn't start like that when it's been stopped for a week and the fuel drains back down the tube and the fuel pump has to re-prime and fill up the lines again.

Re: 1951 Pontiac Chieftain
That photo was late last night. I didn't fancy attempting to hack it whilst tired. There's a lot of "...was sadly crushed to death under vehicle in his garage and not found until the following morning" potential.
If I have time I'll put it in tonight. Brbrbrbrbrbl will have to wait because I need new radiator hoses and I'm out all weekend in Houston.

Next up is to connect up the propshaft to the gearbox, fit a few ancillary things and get the cooling system put together. Also need to work on sealing the manifold a little better...
