Since I couldn't do anything with the clone, I decided to get my cuda out last night and my wife and I went for a drive. I hate to admit that I don't do that as often as I should. The main problem is that I live in a small town and most of my friends live north of here in another city. There just aren't too many places to go with the car around here. There are probably less than five people in this town that own musclecars and I built about half of them. You can't talk the guys into getting them out and driving them because they're worried that they'll get a scratch or a rock chip in the paint. That's been the problem with building show cars. I'm not sure what's wrong with the car owners in this part of the state. They complain about not having good places to cruise and hangout, but when I try to organize cruise-ins, they're always too busy to attend.
As soon as it cools down this evening, we plan to get my wife's cuda out and take it out for a drive. We'll probably take the runner out tomorrow night. I have to install new tranny lines on the runner first. I want to make sure that all three cars are ready for the drive to Branson next week.
Are you sure you don't want to come down at least for one night. The cruising is best on Friday night. Saturday's midnight cruise is more like a parade and is downright boring. The room's only $50 a night. Best deal in town.  :yesnod:

The green cuda is all cleaned up, oil changed, wipers working (looks like some rain this weekend) and we're ready to head to Branson. I'll be glad to get away from this heat. It's supposed to be in the mid to low 80's all weekend. That's going to feel like fall weather to me at this point. Gonna miss seeing you guys there.

Everyone's been coming by the shop lately to check on the daytona clone progress. Everyone so far has voted to stay with the red. These guys live around here and know what driving a black car in summer is like around here.  :icon_smile_cool:

I lost a hubcap on my 86 K car once and so i found a pair of other ones off something else and put the two that matched on the same side.  They didnt match the other side of the car though.  My friends all gave me crap for it but i would look at the one side of the car and say "see, they match" then walk around to the other side and say "see, they match"  :icon_smile_big:

Hey you done yet . :scratchchin:

I haven't recovered from the Branson Super Summer Cruise yet. And, today I drove about 300 miles round trip to deliver a rust free 74 Charger up to Howie. I traded him the charger and got my old barracuda back.
May get to work on the clone tomorrow.
I turned the color choice over to my wife this weekend. I just couldn't decide. Guess what color scheme she chose?  :icon_smile_big:
