Drive it like it is. Take lots of pictures.
That must have been a very involved tune up to take 5 years.

It could get a little dicey if you run into a sudden/unexpected rain shower. Just sayin'.

Not if ya don't wash it..
DO NOT WASH it might fall apart...
didn't they used to wash UPS planes to make them more aerodynamic?
first drive: wear safety goggles. open all vents, let all the crap blow out of them. then clean the glass inside and out. drive it filthy.
leave it for now. document with photos. wash later.
Pics! 
I always have to be different. After all that work it deserves to look good. Wash it, better yet detail it then post pictures.

We never wash the race cars. Its bad luck!!! Not that we are superstitious or anything 
This thread is useless without pics!! Be brave, drive dirty!
Is it registered?
If it's not 100% legal, it would be unwise not to wash it.
If it'd been a "barn find" that you got running in situ, then it would be appropriate to leave it dirty. But since you already owned the car, I say wash it.
wash 1/2 of it so it looks like one of those cleans , buffs , waxes all in one commercials.
Pics or it didn't happen.
Oh, I thought you said it was dirty.
I change my vote. As is FTW.
DOH! Missed your post where you said you washed it. It's all good, man!
Gorgeous! Where is the rust? I've never seen one of those without it.
I was imagining this guy driving down the road . . .
