67 GTS 4-Speed: Daily Summer Driver
Went back home this weekend for Chryslers at Carlisle. Unfortunately didnt get anything done on the GTS, which was expected. I got a lot of stuff for the charger and found a guy who may have some glass for the convertible! been on the look out for that for some time now.
But I got some trim clips for the peak trim for the GTS, I got the rear and front glass trim clips (going to use the 68 and above window trim) the console brackets and another grill! Wasnt looking for one but saw someone had one with awesome parking lamp lenses. Upon further inspection I found that the grille's aluminum was in much better shape than the one I painted. So that one will go on the car.
Probably the best Carlisle find I have ever found happened on Friday. I was able to get the chrylser car phone that was in my old mans 92 ram charger. I saw the vehicle for sale on craigslist last year without a title (so I didnt get it) and the guy who bought it parted it out and took what was left to Carlisle. It will go into his 90 W150 that I have out here in Pittsburgh.
Other than that spent a good time driving around in the charger and polara, found out not only does the chargers distributor need recurved, but the shift points need adjusted. Shifts at 2500 rpm under full throttle. So it will be fun to see how that car reacts to those changes. Spent the remainder of the time organizing the garage and labeling everything. Trying to make it easier to find things for the next car to be restored.
