My to-do list:

Check all new fitting connections. Fuel/trans/brakes/coolant. -Done


Set preload on front wheel bearings-Need to buy cotter pins.
-Done

Bleed Brakes.

Adjust Booster->MC pushrod. -Done

Re-Install exhaust.
-Done

Wrap up wiring. Dome light and +12v to cigarette lighter for cell charger.
-I keep forgetting to buy the damn lightbulb itself.

Sand the seam sealer on rear fender arches and paint bare metal.
-This isn't actually critical.

Modify carb. -Remove and drill two holes in butterflies for idle.
-Done

Set timing. I need to buy a timing tape for the damper. -Done

Mount battery box.
-This will take some figuring out to find a spot that I can actually get to the bottom. The easy spot is on the driver's side which isn't ideal. Or, I can use nutserts and put it wherever, but, I don't know how hard those actually are to rip out of sheet metal.

Make access hatch for fuel cell. I have sheetmetal and piano hinge. -Done

Alignment. Done with a tape measure, should make it driveable for a test anyway.
-Done(kinda)

Proceed to coat quarter panels with rubber.
Test drive is a socket for the axle nuts and brake bleeding away.
