Got a wheels up photo of my '65 Dart!

Cool Dart! Reminds me of the Hemi Dart in the Forza series on Xbox one...

Shit, If you want to see ugly, go look at the mess Jass and I are throwing together here.

Come on Stretch, I, by far, have the ugliest A body at the present time.. and will probably continue to do so for the foreseeable future. Like Doc's Signet-ficant Other the only fresh paint mine will have are the new floors and cage I have to install or have installed. I found a door just not sure of the color, I have yet to locate a front clip, so it may end up being fiberglass but if it's steel it could be any color.
 
My car doesn't smell bad, but then again there are no soft parts left. Honestly there's really not much left at all, see.

Its been sitting in that barn for somewhere around 15 years. It had more mouse shit in it than I have ever seen in my life and I've seen a ton of mouse shit over the years. I evicted 5 dead mice on the initial clean up. Jass assures me it smells awful and isn't so sure the smell will ever be entirely gone. My wife and kids tell me they can smell it just by walking near it. I guess I'll take their word for it and just do what ever it takes to remove the smell. I'll just keep plugging away at it until someone tells me it finally has no odor or that it smells good.
 
Stretch can smell his car, despite his claims to the otherwise. He's reacted to it twice whilst in my presence, quite vocally. :D
 
I can but not like everyone else can. I know its bad though. The fact that I can faintly smell it tells me it must be awe full.
 
Getting rid of a strong odor isn't easy, but it can be done. Years ago I did a 69 Eldo that had the front seat smolder to the metal frame with the windows up. Every bit of any non-metal has to come out. Then scrub the metal with ammonia & vinegar. After that re-paint all metal. The odor actually penetrates the metal. You need to seal the smell into the metal. The most difficult part is getting the odor out of the cowl vents. If you don't every time you turn on the heat or a vent the smell hits you. It helps the sprinkle some fragrant soap crystals down the cowl vents and get the wet.
 
I had a stinky finger for 3 days, no matter how much I scrubbed and washed it.















'Twas the last time I let that girl order anchovies on a pizza. I removed them with my fingers Yuck!

Damn! We had a '62 Rambler that was full of racoon crap and that was bad enough.

Dude! In your backyard, upon opening the door you jerked your whole upper body back and exclaimed "Oh my God!" You obviously got a non-faint snootful that time. :D We'll get 'er fresh as clean linens, worry not. 68R/T is right about the metal, though--I learned that via the prototype chicken bomb. :dance: I don't think it'll be that bad in the Valiant, though... some bleach water in a spray bottle ought to do the trick.

Jester's comment reminded me of the "Stinkpalm" scene from Mallrats. :D
