Had to quote this. I recently purchased a 2010 RAM 1500 quad cab. It has the Mango Tango orange on the outside with interior that is chocolate over peanut butter. I call it my Reece's Peanut Butter Truck. Just no better way to describe it. When I do sell the 67 notch fish, About 3K of that money will go toward making this truck everything I want it to be. 2" lower in front, 4" lower in rear, coil overs, etc.. to handle more like a car. I am a car guy afterall.
By the way Redd Foxx stated many years ago... "no negro crayon in the box". Think about it.

Hate to see you sell your notch back but that 2010 is a nice truck.
 
So! I finally thawed something out of the freezer for dinner. And tonight it will be Spaghetti.
And for the next 3 days will be spaghetti and god help me it turns out good.
 
Well...., grabbing a few pics off wifeys facebook wasn't as difficult as I expected. Surprisingly that annoying [Page not responding] box has yet to appear on this screen either. Go figure. Maybe the squeaky wheel does get some grease.
I'm truly sorry the custom interior doesn't show up well in wifes pics. The landscape view of front end wasn't be found either. I couldn't delete the duplicate pic either but did try. You can see the OEM 273 rebuilt 1984. A repaint from 1992.
Yes I added power steering so I could run a much smaller diameter steering wheel. It does have a custom Plymouth logo in its center. Because it is a 67, It didn't get the stainless reveal moldings at front and rear glasses. They are there today. The lower left piece of that rear molding alone was a 13 year hunt. FOUND IT!
Yeah it still rolls on narrow 14 inch steelies, 5on4 sbp. Everything needed to go BBP power disc brakes is here. Front stabilizer bar that ma mopar didn't give her either. Yours for the taking. No, there isn't a 323 suregrip. Just the same 276 gear rear with the BP from a 73.
I know this isn't the proper "for sale" place. Do I care? Apparently not. We have interested local buyers anyway.
Just talked with the wife again. She tried again to upload that front view. I couldn't find it on my laptop access. Maybe it will update later.

I went over to look at Tom's 360. Nice engine really but we were just too far apart on price. Clean std bore 360 with big valve J heads. I bet a hone and a new set of rings would make it run. A piston and rod had been pulled and the bearings looked good.

Nope. I decided there is no reason to change engines in either car. I really need to look at the big picture and figure out which direction I want to go with the hobby. A 64 Dodge is my goal. A 440, Polara, or a 500 would be perfect. 330 post cars are fun but most of them are still out making 1/4 mile passes on a weekly basis. I don't want a hot rod. Just a nice driver. What is the last car you want to own as you get older before they take your license away? :lol: If I find one of these I would probably need to sell both my other cars. One for sure.
