Well I was thinking since you volunteered the trip is on your nickle. I can fix you a cot up in the shop. That way you can be close to your work.
I guess you could call the test drive a success. The brakes definitely don't release properly. The "new" right hand seat belt won't extend fully so my wife could hook it, the right hand window spline where the handle goes is stripped and broke the handle getting it off. Several neighbors were out and they all were looking at us. It's much louder than I want, but the tail pipes aren't on yet. I'll have to take it to the muffler shop to get them fitted and welded up. I may have to change the mufflers. I want it so sound healthy not like it has open headers.
Other than the brake light problem that's not electrical all the electric stuff works perfectly. Temp seems to be running at 190 deg. When I first started it the engine got to 220 very quickly, but I think that was from an air pocket in the heads. I let it sit with the radiator cap off and it bubbled for over an hour, then the next time I started it the temp went to 190 and the fans kicked on and it stayed there.
Trans shifts great, but again the clutch engages at the top of the pedal travel. Don't like that but I'm not sure there is anything I can do about it. And my left rear wheel rubs in the inner wheel well. Going to have to make some wheel spacers to move it out a little. And will have to get longer wheel studs.
So my work is still cut out for me. I guess work on it will never be done.
I wish things woud have gone better on the test drive, but after replacing the engine with one that's 38 years newer than the car, trans that is 25 years newer, and a off brand "ford" rear, totally new front susension, all new disk brakes, 2 new wiring harnesses I can't complain too much I guess.
