And you thought it was a joke..
Everyone knows that to own a Mopar means your about broke trying to purchase Mopar parts.
Heck, Chubby and Frd are a 1/4 the cost to build one of those.
I guess you get what you pay for........... :poke:

Yup, but a "c" word or a "f" word are like @$$holes, everybody got one. :D

I personally like the color of money.
It's been a long time since I've seen it in real life but from what I can remember, It was a real cheery color green. It tended to put smiles on peoples faces.....

I am with you that's my favorite color green also! Haven't seen much of it lately :sad9:
 
Ordered rear axle bearings and seals. Weather is finally nice enuff to use the blaster outside. Can now blast the rear housing and get it powder coated. Then blast the bottom of car. Need to get my front hubs set up so I can make brackets for the front calipers... Damn, not enuff time in the day. This weekend I will be gone to my Dad's place, no work on Cuda then either.................... :protest: :protest: :protest:
 
You need to cut down on all that time you spend eating and sleeping so I can start seeing this project being assembled. The suspense is killin' me!!

Holy crap!!! Leave for a couple days and you guys relegate me to the second page..... wtf? :D
Got home to find the rear axle bearings/seals arrived. :cheers:

Thank you. :D

I don't know about "missed" lol

My Dad surprised me. Doing rather well. Totally the opposite of a few months back. It's amazing what certain drugs can do to someone. The doctors must have finally figured out the "correct" mix. He was basically his "old self." The weekend was really "uneventful". Which was good. :D
Thanks for asking!!!!

:sleepy2::sleepy2: - Don't mind me, I'm just waiting for new 'Cuda progress updates.
 
So, one of the many little side projects that have to be done when you modify some other part. Since I cut out the spare tire well and decided to build a bigger tank, the trunk latch support had to be modified.

No, life getting in the way, dammit!!! If tomorrow is nice, I can sandblast some pieces and get them powder coated. Need to blast the bottom of the car too. Pretty much done with the major mods, so I can start "prettying" things up. :D

Went Friday and looked at a trailer, gonna buy it. Also hauled home a bunch of Viper parts for other projects and my buddy bought a low mile 92 Viper. Probably a touch spendy for the year, but is a pretty nice trailer and has a bunch of extras. I need one for hauling restored cars and spendy exotics around in the crappy winters here anyway. Tired of borrowing a trailer every time I need one.

Nice trailer.
I guess you don't plan on driving the 67 now.
I'm calling it the trailer queen now.
 
Dang! I'd say that trailer has everything but a kitchen sink except I think I saw one of them in there too!

I thought my car might make it into a magazine some day but I don't think they publish the Police Gazette anymore.
