Fun day of wrenching with Joe (sixinthehead) today!

We (mostly he) got all of the suspension and gas tank removed.

I drained the shellac out of the oil pan too... We will see...

Yes, just trying to nudge him back to the one that is almost done! :D :D He did really good last year racing so we got to give him a big thumbs up on that one. :D :D All in good fun!

You're not planning to have this car ready for Barber, are you? :shock: Or will y'all be driving with Jason?

No way this will be ready for Barber! :lol:

Adam and I are going, whether we get to race with Jason or just watch and hang out.

I ordered another pinion seal for the Challenger and just need to pick it up.

I haven't forgotten about the Challenger,... or Duster,... or other Valiant,... or Dart,... or other Duster,... or Ginetta,... or Locost,... or HA/GR,... or Turismo,... or '56 truck... :lol:

Glad to hear it, Rob. Sanity should sometimes prevail.

Adam and I will be playing cars tomorrow after work. :D

He has made a new gauge cluster and will likely want to finish that bit of wiring along with the new ignition switch and button.

We will put fresh oil in it and maybe see how she runs tomorrow evening as well.

Me & Cookie are better at takin' stuff apart than puttin' it back together, so I'll be dependin' on folks like Adam & Joe to do that smart kinda stuff... :wink:
