Project Riddler's Ride - 1976 Plymouth Duster
Well I finally got my butt out into the garage today. I decided since I was dead broke from buying the T56 Viper transmission I would do some of the crappy time consuming work that needs to be done but no one likes to do.
I welded for the first time today. My welder has been busy during the race season as well as with work/family obligations. The picture shows you why I shouldn't weld. :)
Doesn't really matter though since I grinded it down smooth and applied seam sealer over the welds. What your seeing is the trunk lid hinge brackets re-attached to the tubs.
Then I moved on with the tube of seam sealer and did inside the tub where the wheels are. I'm planning to paint this area over with POR15 and then spray a rubberized gravel guard in there to protect the metal and help with some noise reduction.
Once all this is completed and I can purchase a Quicktime Bellhousing and T56 transmission mount I'll be mocking an engine/trans in and fabricating a center hump.
