Driving mine everywhere! ( just got it on the road the day before I left for Carlisle)
I took it to Church this morning and when I came out there was a crowd around it! I told them I brought it so I could say "just driven to church on Sundays by and old man"   :bigsmile:
Gonna put some miles on it to make sure the bugs are out of it!  Darn thing STILL is covering me with leaves out of the vents when I go above 80 MPH??? :roflsmiley: I put my second tank of fuel in it today....440's sure get thirsty! But the huge grin on my face is well worth it! My 3 boys are fighting over who gets to ride shotgun! :grinno:
Lots of thumbs up and positive comments all the time! I can't park it without someone looking it over when I come back. I'm surprised how many women like it? Didn't expect that? My wife hates it....I brought it to the speedway I work at and had 3 wives of racers wanting to go for a ride! LOL

Started the re-assembly process of the car and was able to spend most of Saturday and part of Sunday getting some quality time.

My wife and I took our 71 street radial class Barracuda to the track this weekend and made a few passes. It was near 100 degrees and the traction was terrible. We could only run around 9.0 in the 1/8. Might take my Pro No E 71 Cuda out next weekend.

Some maintenance done preparing for holiday start Saturday, a 5 hour drive to Rättvik in Sweden going to the Classic Car Week. Highlight of the year to me. At Thursday the largest Mopar gathering in Europe (500+ ? ) is held in Orsa with 1/8 mile open to Mopars only.   :)

Oil change with filter, tranny fluid and filter, coolant and thermostat, greased front end, new poly tranny mount, new rear stabilizer poly end links. I have new polyloc engne mounts too, but no guts to start on them. Too tight in there and as I now have original 340 exhaust manifolds to replace headers I rather do both jobs together some day.
