Another Mopar Off My Bucket List - Barracuda Fastback

I've been on hiatus for about 4 & 1/2 years. I guess maybe I should explain the long absence. Most of you probably don't believe in alien abductions so I need to come up with another excuse.

Truth is that I let too many things get to me, stress built up, and I had another nasty heart attack (my 4th). The local hospital sent me to a major hospital (Bryan Memorial in Lincoln, NE) an hour away. There, they claimed there wasn't anything that could be done and sent me back home despite my excruciating chest pain.

Within 12 hours of getting back home the pain became unbearable and the EMTs were back at my house. After some discussion they opted to send me back to Lincoln, but this time to NEBRASKA HEART INSTITUTE. They did some creative blood vessel splicing to perform the repair work to keep me above ground.

Unfortunately the amount of time spent with inadequate blood/oxygen supply to my brain wiped out half my memory. I spent months trying to remember common words like cat & kitchen, etc... It was a real downer. I sorta lost my sense of humor and became more introverted. I stopped most car progress and focused on re-training my brain. I am just finally trying to get back to more shop time but half of my memory was wiped out. I struggle quite a bit with facial recognition and my concept of time is really skewed.

So for any of you poor souls that have suffered through reading this thread, the bad news is 'I'm back'.
