[acme rat killer]

Thanks Stuart i might just take you up on that. Ill atleast need the door the rest i might get from sortafit.

I got one for you, I tryed to pull the keys out of the ignition, and it wont turn back enough to get the key out. any ideas? Anyway i pulled the heads tonight and most the stuff off the motor so i can pull it this weekend. I need to make a cart for my sons 340 so i can have the stand for the 383 for tear down. It dont look to bad inside:yes: i figured it would be all rusty.

Holy @#$$-I hit a deer with my '85 Regal T-Type in exactly the same way back in '96:black_eye:. Same corner of car,same damage-I even had hoof scrapes on the hood,side mirror(what was left of it) and the right door. That sucks,bud.

I'm with Propwash(that's a scary thought) on this;keep the furry door handle!:yes: I hit a deer carcass on I-75 with my bike(Is there a pattern here?) and still have a large clump of hair that a former club brother pulled out from the underside of the scoot. Since I hit the carcass at about 70+ mph and am here to tell the tale(tail?),that makes it a memento-or a reminder!

on 70 columns they are locking so they have an arm out there in the engine bay , make sure the arm is pushed all the way down to the ground . Then your key will turn and come out .

This is the second deer the other did the same thing to my Jeep Cherokee ,broke the header panel, grill, fender, and both doors, same side.

Funny thing happend today i was looking at the data plate on the dart and noticed that it was built on the same day as the Road Runner:grin: That would be July 10 1970 What are the odds. The engine looks good inside, i could have gotten by with just starting it but were is the fun in that. It wont need board so should be able to put new rod, mains, and some moly rings after a hone. Some new seals and gasket set and i should be burning rubber in no time:grin:

 

[acme rat killer]

Got some pics me working need to get an engine hoist and pull it. pulled it apart in the car and was going to use the garage beam and a come along, but with my luck the whole dame thing would come down.

 

[moparstuart]

very cool and sounds way cheaper and easier now .

 

[acme rat killer]
