Project- Bills Buggy

Well... Walking away from the buggy Friday night, venting and getting things out of my system, worked wonders for me.. Got to the garage Saturday around noon to get started.. we again took a shot at the rear window chrome.. It took us an hour, and it still fought tooth and nail, but we got it off. Monday we will be sealing up the glass and the rubber and hoping for the best.. I cleaned up my other set of chrome for when we put it back on.. and then came the biggest moral booster of all... I pulled the car out! lol

Now we needed to get the car out so we could work on the hood.. at first I was just going to pull it out and leave it at that.. but once it was out, and I sat there behind the wheel. I could feel the itch.. BAD.. my buddie Bob, said, 'take it around the block willy'... I needed no further prodding... For the first time in nearly 2 years, I drove my car more than 10 feet.. I took it around the block (and its a really big block) twice.. the second time I even stood on it a little just to stretch the ol girls legs a little.. What a boost.. I told my wife it was almost as good as sex LMAO.. No hood.. rear markers out.. didnt care... got lots of head turns from other drivers and people walking around.. for 5 minutes I was on top of the world.. I did learn a couple things.. she needs lined up big time LOL.. and the headers still hit (i kind of figured they would) .. I may have adjusted the torsion bars down a stitch too much... but oh well.. lol.. what a blast... and sorry guys, no video... no one wanted to work my iphone while I drove.. and truthfully, I was so excited to be driving the Dart, I kind of forgot to ask at first lol

After that it was time to get back to work.. I got all the rear interior back in (my first time doing that.. Its funny trying to figure out what screws go where and how stuff fits together, when your not the one that took it apart LOL .. ) .but I got it done... We got the hood and scoop prepped and painted, and called it a day.. had a few beers and celebrated a much better day...

I did promise some pics of the buggy seeing daylight, so enjoy.. also took pics of the scoop and hood.. the hood wasnt dry yet, so it looks weird in the pic.. and the last pic is one I did with an app on my phone.. gave the Dart a chrome, high sharpened effect with a slight border (photography is another interest of mine and I like doing artsy fartsy things with pics LOL) .. I want to thank you all again for the pep talks and positive thoughts... as always, stay tuned...
