Changed out the drivers side rear axle brake line.........the old one was crushed somehow........Still have an issue.  Apply the brakes and the pedal goes correct and then goes more and the dash light comes on....too close to the floor......guess I will have to bleed all the wheel cylinders.... :pullinghair:

After almost a dozen times of on and off trial and error, I was able to get the Shaker feet on the base plate.
I used reference photos off of Hemicuda's earlier I looked at the Mopar Alley show in June.

Taping the base feet to the valve cover from refernce pictures is how I was able to determine the correct positioning. The feet are offset this way because of the way Hemi cylinders are banked and offset.

Patching my original taillight panel.. Had to replace about 2/3rds of the lower lip, and remove the license plate bucket to patch it's lower lip. I installed a new AMD panel a while ago, but its just not as nice of a stamping as the factory piece. Really on the fence if I am actually going to cut the AMD one out and install the original.

I think I'm loosing it...   :pullinghair:

Man, it's somewhat depressing to see the fun some guys are having, while I brazed up some of the last wee holes, finally migged the 1/4-upr trk pnl seams and used up the rest of the upteenth tube of seam sealer. Washed with Pre-Kleeno the whole inside of the car less the roof and look to scuff it with a pad and get some epoxy primer on it so that I can carry on with the sealing of this thing. I've seen what happens to these cars where 2 pieces of metal come together and you introduce water and I'm going to do my damndest to cure that.  :cheers:
