The car is almost road-ready.

I've been on test drives, and am reliably making it back and forth to work, except for Monday night, when I learned that 1/4 a tank really means empty.  Apparently these German gauges are notrious for their precision, but not their accuracy.  

The odometer is working again.  With some parts from the Pull-a-Part I was able to make one working odometer.  I'm proud to say I've driven 46 miles since Tuesday night.  I also replaced the last radiator hose, before it could blow or disintergrate.  I'm getting new front tires this weekend and plan to replace the rubber air hood between the intake manifold and the air intake.  With that, the last of my vacuum problems will be fixed.  For now.  I will also bolt the exhaust back to the muffle.  This should quiet the engine enoough to do some more fine tuning
