He can have them all.... votes are like Poke'mon collecting on cell phones. You say you got 'em, but they just don't exist... :D
BUBBLE, BUBBLE, BUBBLE, Rained all night and still just dumping on us. Forget Dusters, time to build an Ark. Week straight.
We had snow till spring, then straight to rain. Just a few days here and there and I made the most of them. I did a rear end swap, gear swap, shocks, headers, hood scoop, wheels and tires, and Plymouth decal... LOL. This constant rain, though, makes me want to quit my job, pull up stakes and move anywhere where it's not raining...…. (but then I think of Houston, and it could be worse)

Yep looks like the rain is getting ready to get here. Thankfully I found some motivation early on, I got transmission mounts all undone, and the motor mounts. All that's left is radiator, unhook the electronics, carb, and pull the distributor. Pretty sure I can clear the booster and master cylinder with the exhaust manifold on. Oh crap, pull the hood off.

you pulling the motor? You don't need to take the hood off. I haven't in 30 years

Pulling motor and transmission... I have heard you don't have to, I just do it. I have been told radiator can stay in, I just pull it all

pull the radiator. leave the hood. Run the chain close to the intake (with carb absent).
 
Home agin. Brought a 91 or 92 complete 360 roller motor back with me. May put it in the wifes little red express. Good motor but I'll flush it and put in new freeze plugs.

One half shoe on one side and no shoes on the other?

yeah, leaves me scrounging. I bought the shoes, wheel cylinders, and spring kit. Didn't know I'd be searching for a couple other things... LOL I found a automatic adjuster that will work. I need parking brake lever and strut assembly that goes between the shoes. Ones I that I've found so far digging around have been too short. If I can't find them, I'll skip them :D

Are they 10 or 11 inch? I probablly have what you need. Which side?

Drivers side. I believe 11" is standard on these? What I'm missing is basically what works the parking brake (levers and strut), which I'll most likely never use.
