Waiting for rain to come and the street sweepers to go by to clean off the sand and left over salt on the roads......I hope next week.

318, 3spd manual on the floor. I don't know what's been done to the motor? I bought the car from a friend and he said the owner before him had the motor rebuilt. I wish I knew.   :dunno:

Another Sunday afternoon spent welding/grinding/sanding the undercarriage of my Challenger. It seems endless, but it's actually getting close to where I can epoxy the bottom and get to the re-sealing/glazing/painting and rockerguarding of it. Please God, just let me get it finished- please!  :working:

Took my 17 year old daughter out for a ride sunday. Put the top down on the vert and took off.
She couldn't believe the attention it drew.  I think she liked it because she smiled for the pictures people were taking.

Finished a major two day project.  Carpet, seat belts and seats have all been restored and reinstalled in the car. I never new putting in carpet could be so much work, lots of trimming and cutting holes for seat belts, seat bolts, 4 speed shifter, dimmer light, and trimming for the seal plates.  :faint:

Cutting spot welds out of the trunk floor pan :working:
I lost count how many but there are still a lot left :faint:
I never new that I could have so much fun!
I feel for you Ian, I've just about got it where it's going out to be blasted, decided to cut more metal out first.

"There's no such thing as putting a '70 AAR 'Cuda exactly where you want it. The 'Cuda isn't interested in such things, for they require finesse. Finesse asked the 'Cuda out to dinner once, but the 'Cuda stood it up to go drink beer under an overpass with her hot little sister. As far as this car is concerned, finesse can go stuff itself."
