What did you do to your Mopar today?

Last night, I adjusted the timing, finished tuning the carb, fixed a minor radiator leak and cleaned out my EGR valve, installing a new gasket in the process. She runs great, first turn of the key and she fires right up. Next up is brakes, then tranny fluid / filter, then driveshaft, then drive her!
 
Cleaned sanded the bottom of trunk lid. Primed the inside (bottom) of trunk.
Skimmed the front valance and primed along with header panel.
Front valance, header panel and trunk ready for sealer tomorrow.
 
Drove it to work today. Didnt have tail lights, dash or dome lamps. Checked the fuses at noon. Fuse just needed to be removed and replaced and all was good. I like easy fixes.
 
ADJUSTED CARB LINKAGE,put on new strange double adjustavble shocks,put a timing light on the new bullet.

Made a big patch for my driver side floor. Welded it in and started grinding the 3 patches i have in. I have 2 more small ones to make but they dont affect installing the engine. Hopefully i can get it in tomorrow because we have a 454 head to pull next. We cant put it off any longer than wed. so we can get my buddies dads suburban back on the road
