Box full, will you be at Chryslers @ Carlisle?

Very old Siemans with a roller on the actuator am. Could probably do as well with low voltage prox switches looking at an arm on the actuator rod. Not even sure you can get the style switches I used anymore. Also modified the headlight door bracket (additional hole patterns) so I could use...

I adapted a 70 Charger door system for my Daytona clone. Fabricated the actuator rod brackets to the pods, fabricated a headlight motor mount into the nose, added an arm to the actuator rod to operate limit switches to stop motor travel, and another arm to attach a counterbalance spring to...

The pit lane pic referred to is in post #12. The gas cap being on the right side makes me think this pic is from the 1970 Riverside race, usually the first race of the season. Window nets were not mandatory until after Richard's flip at Darlington in the Rebel 400 (spring Darlington race)...

Lost the Old Man when I was 19, he was 45. Still tough to accept. But remember the lessons he did get a chance to teach, and one very good lesson from the experience, don't wait to do things, you may not get another chance.

You stay at a Holiday Inn last night? :lol:

Did the robot prostate thing a few years ago too. Spent 33 years running a foundry, "Doctors bury their mistakes, I melt mine." :lol:

A lost art along with backing a trailer for most folks.

71 R/T uses screws through the bumper mount into the taillight housing. Agree those "push pin" fasteners are not factory. Also agree I would use the 1/4-20's and nylocks since the bolts won't see high heat.

What year car? Nothing like that on my original 71. Maybe a "jury rig" job?

78 Mercury Bobcat. Mercury's version of the Pinto. It at least kept the miles down and weather off of the 70 Charger R/T. :thumbsup:

The original Nosferatu?

Animal House, Otis Day and the Nights.

Bad Day at Black Rock, Spencer Tracy and Robert Ryan
