Got my 9" housing back today with Mopar 8 3/4 ends and the perches welded on. The cats seem to approve. I can afford primer and paint to paint it back up, and then my car budget for the month is SPENT! LOL

why mopar ends? will you need a custom axle now?
Was gonna need custom axles anyway. I was gonna have one HELL of a time finding brakes, axles and drums to work with the small bolt pattern, which I am retaining. Now it will be easy peasy.

oh ok.. keeping small bolt. that makes more sense..
Yes sir. I wouldn't have done that, had I not found a great deal on the 4 piston caliper front brakes.
Cool Beans, the cats approve! Nothing like the Kitty Seal Of Approval (and that would be meow kitty not Sweetie-Pie Kitty) to give parts a solid thumbs up! Or rather paws up. Or claws up. I'm overthinking this...

That Mazda red is a GREAT color. I don't have anything that I'd use it on, but...
Ain't it though? I couldn't believe how close to candy apple red it is.
Yes they do!
I knew a Cajun that had his fresh SB Chevy motor sitting in is living room. Cool part was his dirt floor!

You know you are a redneck, when you mow the front lawn and find a Camaro.

Its no hill for a stepper! You are a stepper!
Thanks Bill! You keep sayin that, but man, sometimes I don't feel it. I'm feelin purdy good this mornin though. You doin ok?
We're doing good. Headed this AM to Dallas to look at a AMC Hornet of all things!!! 8-9hrs of all goes well. Looks to be a low ml survivor L6 car.
Ya know I will have to look under its bottom side. Its so hard for this old man to get back up!! Embarassing!
It happens. A Hornet. There was a guy that had one in Macon when I was a kid. It was an SC car. 360 and a 4 speed. It wasn't slow, but man was it ugly.
Yes they mad about 700-800 in 71 I believe. Yea they run pretty decent.
Ugly? Hey we are peeps that also own a 62 Lancer, and just sold a 62 Dart!! LOL
I have a bud with a pasture full of old stuff. Hide away. He has an early A body Dart to go see. I sold my Duster project 3-4 year ago and I have not seen a decent Duster project within 500 mi go for the last 4 years!!!
I like um. Heck I'll go one further I like these.....Yes they mad about 700-800 in 71 I believe. Yea they run pretty decent.

I have a bud with a pasture full of old stuff. Hide away. He has an early A body Dart to go see. I sold my Duster project 3-4 year ago and I have not seen a decent Duster project within 500 mi go for the last 4 years!!!
There are actually people out there looking for an buying Gremlins!!!
About ten years ago I had a bud that belonged to a Maverick club!!
I guess the AMC Hornet was sorta an ugly cousin to the Dodge Colt, but don't tell that to U know who!!??? LOL
