For the first time since D-Day 2023,
the Ford was back out on the road. This was a short test drive following
the work on repairing the cylinder block and a new head gasket.
It was a late evening drive and while still daylight, the sun was getting low
on the horizon.
Things were looking ok on the trip, but when I got home, I noticed some
coolant weeping around one of the studs. So still a little more tinkering to
do, but it was nice to have "Hope" back on the road after so long.
