God that shop!  :o :coolgleamA: :coolgleamA:

Thanks. I ran an auto repair shop here for 12 years. I have since switched to auto sales. Now I have just about everything I need to work on my porjects.

No, it is called a "WHIP" made in Fort Worth Texas. I bought it from a friend that works for an equipment company.

Work has been very time consuming this year so not much of anything has been done. I have lots of plans....just need to find the time now.

I have a couple minor things to do on the '69 like change out some seat belts and order a set of the repo HP exhaust manifolds and put them on.

I have not done much with the '68 Charger this year after putting the a rebuilt 383 in. The interior needs some carpet and a headliner. The paint is OK but I would like to redo it and possible change the Vinyl top from black to white and add a white stripe.

My project Challenger is at a standstill until I can decide what path to go. I would like a Vanishing Point clone but the wife wants it plum crazy purple. The car is fairly solid but needs to have an engine swap, new interior, and paint. I am torn between a daily driver 318/360 4 speed combo or weekend 440 4 speed bruiser.  :shruggy:

My other project is a full size '83 Jeep Cherokee Laredo 2 door that I am swapping a Cummins 4BT and A618 overdrive tranny in place of the old gasser. Should be good for mid 20's mpg and make a nice economical driver.

Now watch what you say or they'll be calling you a radical,
      a liberal, oh fanatical, criminal.
Won't you sign up your name, we'd like to feel you're
      acceptable, respectable, oh presentable, a vegetable!

Just for grins folks, where are you on your various automobile projects?  :D




Well after 3 years, 1 month and a few days I FINALLY have my 71 Dart "tagged, inspected and road legal"!!   Still have not driven it but that will change later this week.  :yesnod:  It is not a show car and never was meant to be!!   Just wanted something to enjoy!!  :2thumbs:

Now it is time to take a few months to enjoy it before we move in May.  Then it will be time to start the next Mopar project..... :scratchchin: Maybe the lime green 70 Duster or my dark green 71 Satellite .....or maybe just sell both those and pool the money so I can find that 70 Charger I have been searching high and low for!!!  :drool5:

Opps, I almost forgot. Shelby's Uncles are getting some parts together for her, for the Super Coupe. Her Uncle Bob is stripping his 79 Duster. Giving her the gas tank, leaf springs and any other odds and ends she might need. Plus the brand new battery in it. And her Uncle Eric is giving her an alternator and a Grant Tuff Wheel. :2thumbs:
