Working in the 660s on my 440. Sorting out if anything was changed over the years. All looks factree.. just tuning needed
 
I replaced old worn out Monroe's with KYB's today They must have been old cause I can tell a difference in the corners. It's a fun around town car so I'm not concerned about canyon
carving.

Reading and thinking thru emulsion characteristics on my 660s. Head is going to explode
 
Chrome was junk on my bumpers. Painted them with rustoleum hammered silver. The grill was a broken one I got cheap at carlisle. Pieces it together mostly.
Installed them today.

Went to my sister and bro-in laws for a little Christmas get-together. Had a good time until my wife got a message that her good friend passed away. The world will be empty without Bette.
 
Pulled all the old transmission cooler lines and the external cooler... went back to stock routing and cleaned up the corner of the engine bay where the cooler had been mounted. Also pulled the plastic catch can and went to a smaller, stainless can.

Installed the new cooler lines (shout out to Inlinetube) Having them run as original is allowing the speedometer, shift and park cables to also run correctly without a lot of bending.

Got the new speedometer cable installed going from a 17 to a 21 tooth gear. Should get me closer to actual speed indicated.

Not a damn thing. Painted baseboards on top of the deep freeze so I can put them back on after I painted the interior walls in the living room.

Drive Shaft is in. Tires actually spin. This was a HUGE. Been waiting a long time for this Day.
:thumbsup:
 
Well, I got the old headers removed and found a better use for them... Gave the Gas-Powered blender a performance upgrade!

Glad someone is thinking, blender powered walker with headers...(blower?)...can ya fit me to that?
(Hey, I'm old, need every advantage I can find!!!)
What was the question again???
Oh yeah, I aint taking a picture of this-rain, rain, cold as my first ex-wife's heart, and more rain...no, no garage, and I sat in the cold rain changing shackle bushings last week!!!
Now where's that dog...
 
Finally got the cylinder heads on the Aspen R/T 360 engine after sitting for a few years. Had a hard time finding the bolts for this thing.

Going to try and get the rest of it together over the next week or so, pull the current engine to put this #'s engine block back in the car.

Haven't done anything for over a week. I had shoulder surgery a little over a week ago to remove bone spurs. PT is going fine, but probably still another week out before I get back to light duty on the car. Thus isn't even close to the ordeal I had 10 years ago when I had a complete tear of the rotator cuff tendon in the right shoulder.
