Update: 

So been driving it on and off for a few months and we are shaking out any gremlins. Here is what we found so far.

-Creaking of suspension bushings, this was happening at first but has gone away with driving the vehicle more often.

-Car idles fine but after driving a bit and stopping at lights it seems to idle a little harsh. This carb was tuned in Wisconsin and now its down here in Florida so elevation is different but we think it just needs a little adjustment and it will be running perfect.

-AC compressor belt doesn't seem to be as tight as it should and when it kicks on it causes a screeching noise. We believe it just needs to be tighten more so this problem doesn't happen.

We plan on bring it in for a service to work out these little kinks. Otherwise it a great drive and draws a lot of attention down here.
