As a matter of fact the truck/trailer is still mostly loaded, with the exception of clean clothes :D.

Challenger is home, I almost sold it, for twice what I paid, but the buyer floundered at the last minute and offered a pair of '66 Belvederes in trade, uh, no... Had he offered a '65 things may be different.

Snagged a few things for the Valiant, a pair of almost brand new KYB's and a used fiberglass front bumper. Another set of B/RB Cal Custom valve covers, an Isky cam and lifters, 10" torque convertor, a HV oil pump, and some other forgettable, but needed miscellany followed me home.

For the shop I bought 4 nice old torches, 2 pair of equally nice old gauges and a new set of hoses. I also picked up an old Coates 1010 tire machine for $100, not going to be much good for aluminum wheels, but at last count I have nearly 50 old steel wheels with tires that need to be broken down.

Didn't buy anything for the Challenger, I need to assess it first, but it looks like a lot of sheet metal, at least one frame rail and the torsion bar crossmember.

id kill for that tire machine..hell assuming it has a bead buster on it you can at the very least pop the bead on aluminum wheels and then do them by hand

and i still need to find myself a set of b/rb cal's
 
I was gonna say, Christ, what the fuck else is wrong with that car I didn't know about...
 
bah "logo" cal's..i want the early full fin no logo boss in the middle....course at this point id probably settle for any ole aluminum covers.....what no pic of the tire machine?
 
I'd like to do the personal delivery, but if I use all my vacation time for something other than family my wife is likely to get pretty upset [smilie=f:. I'll get it wrapped up and get some measurements for some shipping quotes.



I forgot to mention I purchased a Harbor Freight 2500# ATV winch to load the Challenger on to the trailer, and it worked great! Problem is I didn't install the roller fairlead, the cable jumped and screwed up the winch, luckily I bought the warranty.

What side is that??? :D :D :D
 
I think you were just as excited as I was at finding one so nice you didn't even notice. I didn't either until I uploaded that first picture you sent to my phone onto my PC. That's when I texted you. :D
