I'm sure it will be fine. It's no different than the car sitting really. Although that is a good idea and I think I will do that tomorrow.

That spark plug looks perfect but if it idled at all before you pulled it it is only giving you a read of the mixture at idle. To see what it is doing at part throttle or at cruse you will need to hold the throttle at a steady speed, shut of the ignition, click it into neutral and cost to a...

The power came back on but it was around 7:00 P.M. The good news is we have another ice storm coming Wednesday.

Last Sunday afternoon a buddy came over and helped me push Agnes into the shop. I had every intention of getting started on her right then and there. Once she was in the garage I was completely overwhelmed with emotions. It was sudden and totally unexpected. It was the first time since...

I have this car as well. I am not 100% sure what plans I have for it at this time. I do plan on swapping out the 3 speed for the OD Pierre already rebuilt for it. It's in the trunk along with the bellhousing, new clutch assembly, and shifter with linkage. I have all the parts for the big bolt...

They finish 8th in the state

You have no idea how much of a relief it is. I had every intention of have it in paint by now but with everything that happened in November it sat half sanded for the rest of November and all of December. Then my daughters competition cheer team won every meet they went to and that led to 6...

Thanks but there is a ton of body work to do. It's far from straight.

I have Agnes and plan to get her running and driving in honor of Pierre. My goal is to get her running in time for the car show we are having in Pierre's name in June. As you know Pierre and I put a lot of time into this car. This car is full of memories and to be honest pushing it into the...

I hung the doors and fenders this morning to get them out of the way for Agnes.

Looks like I haven't updated this thread i. A while. I have been working on Stinky. I just haven't been on line much.

Thank you. I appreciate the advice.

This is really good advice. I'll let you know how it goes when I do it. Thank you Rusty

I have his laptop. I'm sure he has a file in there but I just can't bring myself to open the damn thing. I miss him a ton. I haven't really melted down yet. Maybe I should open it and get it over with. I have been sanding the Valiant to bare metal to get it ready for epoxy primer. It's...

Me too. Infact I have for this very topic.

HOLY SHIT! AWESOME! Thanks!!!

I think I remember the name of the place where Pierre had the head gaskets made. I think it's 'Flatout Products" and the extremely knowledgeable young lady who answers the phones name is Candy. I plan to give them a call and see if they have any info in their system.

Yes. that is true. My hope is to figure out who he got them from and that they might have as record of what he ordered. I do have his laptop. I might be able to find an email with the info from that company or hopefully a file of what he did. I just haven't been able to bring myself to open his...

The 74 challenger is not in my possession. That went to another very close friend of ours.

It is at a friends body shop and it will be finished. Jim is going to paint it as Pierre had planed.
