Ya, that's some "heap"... don't know what that would make my GREEN car?? :icon_mrgreen:

[Budnicks]

Dick; I hate you even more now....LOL... SWEET

 

[Richard Cranium]

Nice job. Love that color. What color interior ?

The interior is black buckets with console. Today, I got in the wiring harnesses, front p. window reguilators & one rear p. window regulator. What a bitch the rears are! Hopefully tomorrow, i'll get in the door window assemblies.....assuming that everything is there.

Also, thanks for all the kind words!

Hey Ack Ack, how do you do such work when you're a frigging ungrateful midget with no hands, just claws!

 

[Meep-Meep]

I see what appears to be a reinforcement plate welded in where the pinion snubber would hit and I assume this this is HEMI only?

Also, I see one exhaust hanger bracket is silver color while the other is body color. I am assuming that all cars went down the line with one bracket and it got installed early on and got painted with the rest of the car, so that might mean a dual exhaust option wasn't known until later in the build? Or did you forget to paint it?

Anyway, everything looks really nice from here.

 

[Richard Cranium]

Yes, the pinion snubber reinforcement is particular to Hemi cars as well as he reinforcement boxes on the front spring perches. The right side muffler hanger bracket is welded on while the left side bracket was a bolt on piece for dual exhaust cars & was unpainted. There is a corresponding plate with studs on the inside of the car to which is fastens to.
