Finally installed the headliner a couple weeks ago, what a nightmare, but it's done.

Got a new Sticker for the air Cleaner, nice from a guy on Moparts Wingedsixbarrel.

Picked up some stuff from Carlisle this year and last.

She's showing some stress cracks at the rear quarter seam and at the dutchman panel, but still looks good from 5 ft.LOL  Going to keep driving her till the 70 is done then start racing with it a bit more I think.

I got an offer to buy my car for 20Grand cash and it's a serious offer.  At a crossroad.

Pulling my hair out, if I start driving it this year I may not want to sell.  Due to many factors including a sitting project and the state of the economy I may take him up on it. 


Grats on the award .. :woo: ..I'd guess the payback for keeping for another year was worth every penny  :2cents:

Thanks,  I can't count how many times guys would look at it and wonder what it was.  I finally in the last couple months just came out and said,"It's a shower rod I painted black and I got it out of a dumpster from a project I was working on."  It has rubber boots on the ends and is adjustable, worked perfect.LOL

Well, had a bubble on the hood that decided to let go.  So I had to do something before Carlisle. :villagers:

Plus I had a set of hood rods that Brad70 sent me a while back and decided to do it today as well.
