Another Mopar Off My Bucket List - Barracuda Fastback

Cleaning out my old tin shed (getting a new tuff shed) I came across a hydraulic jack from an engine hoist. I forgot I even had it, it goes to show you that you should clean your shed up every 15 years whether it needs it or not! My next door neighbor actually gave it to me a long time ago as he was moving. Anyway, I think it works, I can take a picture of it if you are interested. I have no need for it and its yours if you can use it.

*The temperature has remained low here the past few days. Tuesday it didn't get out of the 30s. Wednesday was slightly better. Most of my time has been occupied with cleaning. The new right tail light did arrive in the mail so I did get it on.

I talked to my son over the phone and he's planning on coming from Iowa this weekend. I should have the garage clean enough to get the Roadrunner back inside. He's determined that we spend the time to troubleshoot the problems with the ignition control.

Spring is here (whether or not it feels like it) and my time working on the cars is going to be pretty limited. If we can get the Roadrunner running well it'll be one less thing that I'd set out to accomplish over Winter. 99% of the work I wanted to get done on the Duster is finished. Who knows? Maybe if we have success with the Roadrunner we can still have time left to do the converter swap on the Barracuda. I'm hoping he sticks around long enough to help stuff the 360 into the truck too. That dang cylinder on my cherry picker bleeds down so fast that it takes one person pumping the jack just to keep an engine in the air.
