What did you do to your Mopar today?

Dropped the 400 off at the machine shop. Should have it back in a week.
 
I just ordered parts to upgrade brakes.
After reading this thread and comparing a LOT of different prices/options, etc, I heard from Steve at Pirate Jack and bought a complete kit at pirate jack for $285 shipped. Product # MP-306 on their site which includes 8" booster, bracket & linkage, master cylinder and proportioning valve all designed to work with NO mods to the firewall. Thanks b body forum.
 
Working on putting this section all back together after running the tube under the fender - for all my wires ( want the engine bay "clean" )

Had to cut this out, to get to the brace behind it, so I could cut it out and make the tube fit through . . . ARGH . . .
Nothing can go "easy", it's always two steps backwards to make one step forward . . . that's what I did . . .

Man Larry, you might have to give up your day job and become a welder! That patch looks really good!!!
 
Finished mounting the radiator, and built the 20AN upper and lower hoses. What a PITA!! I found a different way to build them, which really helps at that size line. I have to thank a guy at the local Parker-store, who builds big, commercials-lines all the time.

I've been trying to post pics thru tinypic, for almost a week. Something is down or blocked.

Just copy and paste the pictures directly off your computer - open the pictures in a different window/tab, then they load so easy.
No need for 3rd party sites for picture posting on this new site format.:thumbsup:
 
I'm a computer retard. I have no idea what you're talking about. When I get it worked-out, I'll post pics again.
 
me too :lol: if I can do it anyone can . just open your picture file and left click and hold it on your mouse on the picture you want to post then drag it to the post your reply section . it will say "drop files to upload" just let the left button go and it will post the pick in your post :thumbsup:
 
Didn't work, but I'm a tech-sped. Cars....another story. I've never been good at things that don't interest me....but great at things that do. As an example, I haven't updated from my flip-phone, as I only use it once or twice a day. Okay, my wife figured out a way to do it. Maybe I'll catch-on.

the kid n i did a 40mile round trip this morn. woke up the neighbors. hit starbucks. talked to a bunch of cyclists.

mostly PCH and a few side streets. was overcast; kept the Coronet cool.
 
Gonna get into the 383 today and see what happened. I'm thinking that a cam bolt came loose and is rubbing the timing cover, fingers crossed!
 
Well my body guy got all the welding done an I went down to help out grinding...THIS SUCKS...there is a **** load of welds. Then will start on door handles an hood scoop.

You really do nice work....what city are you in? (I'm originally from Taylor).
 
383 must have spun a rod or main bearing. Timing chain and gears are fine. Oh well, the 400 comes back next week.
 
Finally dragged my *** out to the garage and finished up cleaning and priming the front outside surfaces. Also finished welding in the smooth firewall and primed it in epoxy.
