The GMC was started for the first time today since I bought it. It has new timing chain and gears new water pump new fan clutch new fan new fan shroud all new fuel lines new fuel filters electric fuel pump and the starter alternator and radiator have been gone through. New belts and hoses. I changed the oil and pulled the dizzy and ran the pump. New antifreeze. New power steering pump and new belts. I have some more new parts to install but I was at a point where I could see if it was going to run and it fired right up and runs nice and smooth. I am wondering if moving it (this is my first opportunity to do so it was towed in and parked) with the old transmission fluid is a good idea or if I should change it as well before putting it in gear. Any opinions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
