yes it was bump started the first time it ran. Rear main seal took a dumb so we put in a new rear main seal and a 1 peice pan gasket kit. All felpro. Also replaced the starter. I wanted to use a mini hi torque but.... this type bolts into the bell housing not the two bolt from the bottom. AHHH well. still have some leaks to track down but should be running and driving by sunday.
yeah wiring is cloth insulated....... most of it is cracking if I touch it. A new harness or custom one is gonna have to happen.

I will be back home in 3 weeks so I will have to remember to make a new video of it running and outside.

Prolly got shit connections on the Headlights. A bunch of stuff didnt work on the 56 oldsmo after sitting for 20 yrs.
Oil leaks are fun. Watch out Bump starting a newer engine.... You can f/ up the valve train easy.
