Where does the Superstock Duster fit into the story?
Aka the Sox and Martin hemi cars and others of course.

I know about the "old" thing, at 72 I can't do near what I could do in my 30's and 40's. As I said, I was curious as to what was causing all of the alignment problems. Maybe once you get the car back together, you can find a shop with a frame machine to see if the car might be tweaked. Just an...

I'll be keeping an eye on this, as I'll be adding hyperspark and sniper 1 to my big block, hopefully sooner than later as the boxes are here.
Interested in seeing the results and process, even though it's a different engine etc... I'm all for easier starts and smoother running as well.
And the bonus round would be ‘what will Wolfie buy?’ I'd see stuff and say ‘who the hell would buy that?’ Now I’m like ‘wonder if he saw that yet?’ :rofl:
No. The car is not and never has been bent. The only thing I can figure is I have a tendency to tighten things up too soon (and then have to take them back apart) and tolerance stacking bit me.
Hell before it was over I found that with the column bolted in place the lower dash cover wouldn't...
Bob, with as many alignment problems as you have encountered, is it possible the car is twisted out of shape because of no frame connectors, or maybe it was wrecked "hard" and then put back together? I'm just curious because of all I've read about you misadventures.
I fat fingered something when I was trying to delete two that I felt I could live without to make room for incoming messages. Somehow I selected all of them. Hate doing that stuff on my phone. So it's on me. I'll be better in the future on keeping up Gold status.
I got it an it did pull back...
