Nothing to the car today..preparing for the *** kicking thats going to be handed out tonight by Brady and co.:lol::lol::lol:
 
Got the brakes ripped off and everything ready for a revamp from sitting 30 years so it will stop again lol..... Cleaning, cleaning, and more cleaning. Hanging out with my pop's working on the car so pretty much nothing could go wrong with this day lol.....

Hopefully by this time next weekend parts can start going back on the car. Looking to have it moving around by the end of Thanksgiving weekend....

Stole the silicone thermostat housing gasket off my Duster this morning to put on my 01 ram... New gasket should come first of next week then I need to get antifreeze put in the Duster.
 
all I could find to do with mine today was to drive it..........oh, ran the A/C so I know it's working good. Heater a week ago, A/C today..........life on the gulf coast!

After setting concrete forms for a 13 x 11 pad for a green house for my daughter...

I put the 360/904 combo back in the 71 Duster....and got a bunch of stuff hooked up...
 
Replaced the gas filler to tank seal...AGAIN. Lasted 1 1/2 years since first replaced. Tried a different brand this time, from Year One. The original one lasted 45 years. :mad:

Pulled the heater box from car, replaced the heater core then tossed it on the floor of the car since it got dark and cold. Will finish tomorrow. Old original copper heater core weighed 3.2 pounds. New aluminum heater core from Summit, weighed in at 1.6 pounds.
