About that front end alignment. Don't let some punk kid do that to your car. You use a shop that has a guy that knows how to do the 60s and 70 front end alignments. Because believe me the ones that have not done those older Mopars they will screw it up.

A guy I went to HighSchool with is doing it at the shop he works at. It's an old neighborhood shop and I've never been there when one of the three days didn't have something older in it.
 
I just went out to the garage for a second and it sure is nice to have the garage smelling like race gas again!
Also I live under the big pine trees and today we had a massive pollen Storm. I had to blow the duster off before I brought it into the garage and it still just covered in green pollen. When I look out on my street it's not black it's yellow LOL I mean really it's thick.

unless i missed something in the pictures, you marked the cam/oil pump gears and the distributor housing location, but i don't see where you marked the distributor shaft at all? Gear and housing can be in the exact location, but the shaft can 180* off... but i'm sure you know this.....

Yes you can see how the square hole on the top of the distributor and the round hole for the MSD rotor? I pointed that all in perfect I mean exact Square to Square round trip around? The only thing I can think of is that the rotor was actually put on backwards to begin with? If that's possible? I spun the spark plug wires around a hundred eighty degrees and it fired off first tip.
 
After sitting for an entire year with its old oil and I changed obviously the oil and oil filter I couldn't bring myself to restart the engine without priming it first.
 
Okay just ordered windshield Chrome Clips. Hopefully they'll be here by Thursday and I have the appointment for the windshield between 9 and 11 on Friday.
 
Just for fun look at the pegs on the bottom of the rotor and see if the square peg has been scraped where it may have been put in the round hole.

weren't you going to put this distributor in your truck at one point during your fixing of it?

With that tunnel ram on there it's a complete nightmare to get that distributor cap up and off. I have to take all the wires off all kinds of crazy stuff it's... it's... no LOL.
I did take the original distributor that came with the 318 that came with that Duster is on the truck now. I just remember it a good 13.7 at the dragstrip so I figured it would do fine in the truck.
 
I got the front bumper attached. It fit nicely and went quickly. My wife and I looked at the Plymouth chrome strip and headlight rings in chrome and in black. We liked blacked out so I painted up a spare Plymouth chrome strip and threw that nice one on the shelf.

I don't miss that pollen crapola one bit.
 
Well now this red feather duster trunk lid is starting to stick out too much. Too many colors of the car LOL I know how to fix this...
