  Well I don't have any 'Cuda station wagons that look like Vega's but you wanted some pictures of my project so here you go!  Picked up the rotisery on Saturday, now getting the car ready to mount up!

Hi Everyone
I should have a good up date by the end of the week-end, I got some time on it this week and have some work done.
If all go's well it should be moved along some.

Hey, I hope so Dave.  It looks real solid so far.  Just getting ready to take out the K-member so I can hook up the front rotisery.  Are the long torsion bars in the back of the K-member hard to remove?     Also the brake booster was gold from factory, do you know who replates these back to factory color?

You should have no problem. Just turn the adjuster bolts all the way out, lower the frame and pull the bars will dropp out.
I used  http://www.whitepost.com/ for mine on my Challenger.

thanks Dave, I'll give it a shot once Easter is over. 

Crowbait, I got a Roto 2000.  They make them in Des Moines Iowa, so I drove up a couple of weeks ago and picked it up.  My buddy has one and it seems to work great.  About $1,300 with hydraulic lift cylinders & pnuematic tire option to take it outside & load on trailers etc.  I think without options it is around $760.  There web site is:

Well the car is getting down to the end.
My son and employees fired up the engine while I was gone to a basketball tourney Friday.
It ran with only minor glitches, they broke in the cam and everything seems good
I worked on the interior this week the rear seat came out great, but I'm not happy with the job I did on the front seats. The foam was in excellent shape but I can't seem to get the wrinkles out, I'm probably going to take them back out and to a pro to get them right.
We removed the Y pipe from my Challenger to fire it so I still need a exhaust system, front end alignment and it is ready to  test drive.
So I guess this will be one of the final posts on this one,it has been fun.
I will start a new thread on my wife's car this fall when I start working on it.
Good luck to everyone and see you at Carlisle!!!
