ive finally started making progress on my 74 se. its pretty much ready to start once i get the trans all hooked up. By this time next week it should be running and driving on the Kansas mopar cruise!

its abit of a beater now, since i did the paint so long ago but i dont care. I'm gonna drive this thing this year for the first time in about 5 or 6 years now. i had to mount the old rims and tires on it because the 15x10s with the 295-50s mounted on the car dont fit on the trailer. haha
If its running good I'll probably toss it on the rollers while i'm down there and see what it does.

Do I spot a down window?  :o 

Okay I can't resist this one, I hope when you wash the car you had all the windows up, because if that window was down when you washed the car.. next time you jump in it to start it, you might be coming back out feeling like you had a little well big accendent while setting in the seat! or if it's a hot day, just set on the seat as it will sure cool your rear end off and I'm not talking about the car rear end either!  :smilielol:

i took it to get it aligned and i didnt have it running yet so I needed some help to get it up the alignment rack, and it was easier using the come along to get it on the trailer, then used the ramps to go right onto the rack. then i was too lazy to turn it around since i was only going about 3 miles.  :icon_smile_big:

RR will have its start up on monday or tuesday.  everything looks good on it so far, and its not a high HP build so i really do not expect any problems.  The front brakes/calipers/rotors and the brake lines all around are all brand new, the rear brakes have new hardware kits, new lines, wheel cylinders and shoes. So the stopping part is good to go.  I will get the brakes bled monday (prior to start up hehe).  My schedule is TIGHT, but very doable.  I am bringing an extra mechanical fuel pump or a electrical fuel pump just to be on the safe side :D
