Question, do you think I should get the 66 Satelite in a running/ driving condition, and drive it some, for fun, before taking it all apart for the full resto?
Needs brakes first and foremost. Engine is still a question......Might be cracked.....
I mean when was the last time you got to drive a original convertible Mopar?
Just thinking.......
 
Fix the brakes, some new cheaper tires and drive for a while. Restorations take a longggg time. Have some fun and figure out what else is needed.

Yup. Mechanical first. Rat Rod Rag top?
 
This putting it all together is taking way more time than i remember.
I did the power steering hose and kept dropping tools and fasteners so that slows me down. i expected 3 days, but im getting tired.

I baked a tart and took it to New York, Atlanta, and St. Louis... :popcorn:

My math teacher told me to take pi to three dismal places.... :rolleyes:
 
Too many breaks. But almost done. Im slow.
Guy that was supposed to do the job took 10 months and its still not done. So for me, 3 days looks way better.

It look good on old 395 in Escondido on cruise night :thumbsup:
 
5.3 that has been sitting for at least 10 months fired up like it was driven yesterday. That is a relief. Just have to top off fluids and warm it up. 15 hours. I can deal with that.
 
All is good, will get help to install hood in the morning and road test it.

This was one of my photochops in reverse. I created this one first and then turned it into the B&W version above.
