Had the whole crew over today, #1 sons youngest is turning 6, we did fathers day too, it was also the towns summer kickoff day & to top that all my #3 son & his wife are expecting their first child. So to close out the day we went out the back gate to check out the fire works, not bad for a...

The ole get a bigger hammer theory works every time! Looks like my show will be rained out again tomorrow, hope yours goes off ok.

Wanna come down & see if you can figure out my tuning/carb problem. A mini mopar nuts gathering!

Wish I was younger I'd start another one! Might make a few less mistakes, I really enjoyed the building, learning welding & body work, mechanical is my weak spot, I can change a part, but don't always know how the darn thing works.

Well I can easily say I must now be a genius because I spent most of my time on these cars fixing my mistakes!

Yea yea go ahead & rub it in! The 73 was much more cooperative, if it wasn't a #'s engine on this car I would have switched drivetrain. I wonder how it's doing across the pond in the UK?

Well the temp sounds good, of course something else has to raise it's ugly head.

Yea! small victories, did you get to run it & see how the temps were?

As usual with this car mothing goes right, my first car show is rained out! So I'm up way too early, already bored so I figured I put in the new washer pump. Ran it just it case before I pulled it & nothing, pulled it, saw it was pretty empty so I filled it with water & hit it with some juice...

Next option if the Krazy glue fails! Speedo cable is still working!

Dang, looks like rain for sat. I went back to the A/C, it was empty again after about a week or so, picked up a few more cans with the stop leak (I never had any luck with that on central A/C units) but what the hey it doesn't cost any extra. So all is going well, started up fine, kicked down &...

I wish I was a tad closer, I would drive the 'Cuda he helped save, has his fingerprints all over it.

Finished off the 65, paint leaves a little to be desired. nice bayPut adab here & there on the capsMy My, the wheels actually rotate & front end turns, I amazed myself! Put a dab of red on the taillights Door handle broke on meThink I have to lower the torsion bars!Started a MY cars section, too...

I'm missing a pedal for the shifter I put in, but mine back in the day had the hurst shifter with a super long shaft, 20 seconds to get from 1st to 2nd! Oh yea, don't think I had a console?

Yea, I picked up a 26" when I did the 73, after looking at all the cutting & fabing I just recored the old one. Well at least one problem solved, one at a time, eventually we will get there. I got my new washer pump & have been procrastinating about putting it in!

Dumb question but would not a larger radiator do the job? I never had over heating problems with any of the 'Cuda's , the orig. & this 74 had A/C & 26" rads, the 73 was no a/c & only had a 22" but didn't get hot either?

Starting to look like a satellite!

Had a few minuets to kill so I started on the satellite , weird, it had a few hemi parts on the sprue but no hemi engine. front end looks like the other, suspect it will be glued solid. Getting those microscopic spinners on there was fun, I'm getting old!

Geeze I have a headache just from reading this, I'd be damn close to sledge-o-matic time!

Car show in town next sat., gonna try & make it, first one that I had a car to show & not looking for parts. See how she is received, this area is mostly GM hope there's a few mopars there? 2025 Emerson Chamber of Commerce Car Show
