   Also Super Blue 72 If you could possibly get going ,and make a little more progress on the 70 R/T, R/T hedkace would be extemely greatfull to you


I had to think on that one for a while...Ha Ha!  Looks like I'll be done with the 70 R/T when you are!  LOL!

I understand about the '73.  At least you have the reastraint to hold yourself back.  My wife has to hold me back!  Too much fun stuff on craigslist.

Love the pics of the old model cars.  I unearthed a bunch of them a few months ago.  Still have a bunch that I bought over the years.  (Remember the Travolta Fever Trans Am with the wide body kit?).

Love the pics of the pics of your Mom and Dad!  Those are so cool!  I especially like the one of your Dad with the cigarette and you can see the raised white letters on the slicks in back!

4C has some post with old pics.  These would go great over there.  http://www.cuda-challenger.com/cc/index.php?topic=14723.0

 How depressing, right now it's 18 degrees out, 4 days off from work, all the motivation in the world to get going on my R/T, and nothing I can do about it.Tomorrows forecast.....F'n snow. I have to look at her resting under a cover for another LONG, miserable winter.
  I've been bringing a few small parts to work to bead blast them, just to keep the motivation up. I could use a little help though. I've been told a few different ways, so I'm hoping someone can guide me in the right direction here.
 My question is, after (glass) bead blasting these small parts what is the next step? I was told by one to just blow em off with air, and prime em up, another said use a 400 grit them prime em? WTF? Needless to say, I'm a mechanic, not a bodyman, but I do want to do them right. Can anyone help me out here as far as proceedure, what type of primer. Most of these small pieces will be black, and not bodycolor,(excluding piece in pic of course).
 Any help at all would be greatly appreciated.     Thanks all

The radiator support looks good.  You might want to post the question in the "Body shop" section.  Might be seen better there.

Gotta go to bro's house for Turkey Day and I'm late!

Have a great Thanksgiving!
