That's one thing I crossed off my to do list. Maybe Rod will let me sand and paint it myself.

The bad gas lines back at the tank.

Jackie,

Next time I see you, you are getting a free Snow cone (snowball as you call them) since your car is turning into just that..... one giant Snow Ball!  

Brian, Just as long as the snow ball has a lot of booze in it. . That would be great.

Sorry to hear that things are starting to snowball. Hope the influx of surprises comes to an end soon.

You have to find a stopping point or you will just end up restoring the whole car pretty soon.....or wish you would have

My stopping point is when I'm out of money.  Hopefully the car is put back together when that happens.

No, they aren't air shocks. The lines are still hanging from the old ones.

Sweet rear-end Jackie!  

I've known you for years, and I just can't wait to see this brand new REAR end at Carlisle next year  

It should impress the judges.

   Now I get to tell everyone I saw Jackie bare ass naked!   Well, her rear naked for her car at least.

Nice butt!

If you end up needing a conversion u-joint for it I think I have one I can send you.

Oh yes.... I went there!     Give me a break.  Between the lack of sleep and all the excitement since Wed. morning and being in the hospital hopefully only through tomorrow, Im a little slap happy and stir crazy since I don't like being idle and prefer to be out doing stuff.  See my post in a little bit for the explanation of the whole hospital ordeal.  Luckily I have limited internet access here so I can surf here and check my mail.  Downfall is that they have all the facebook games blocked so I think I am going into Mafia Wars withdrawl and as much as I beg, the nurses won't give me any meds for it.

Ask them for a sponge bath, just make sure you ask who will do it.


Nice work and progress on the Challenger. With all the horror stories about projects sitting it is a nice change seeing someone who walks the walk.

[71ChallengeHer]

Brian, I understand. Your harmless.      Ron, Thank you. That means a lot coming from you.    Green Pigs, I really trust these guys or they wouldn't have my car. Rod is prolly one of the best mechanics I know. He's very picky. I know he found things I wasn't expecting. But it all needed to be fixed or I'd have worse problems. 

[71ChallengeHer]

Axles are in and adjusted. New wheel cylinders and brakes. 15 x 7's on the back.   Rod is putting on new gas lines.

[resq302]

Jackie, your rear never looked better!

On the plus side, your getting "free" winter storage....just keep adding work, and it could stay there until April for "free"!
