What did you do to your Mopar today?

two different styles of door panel clips.

wire, as shown, and sheet metal/spring steel.

not sure when the change over was, but IIRC sheet metal was early, wire late.
 
ordered a 3 inch mandrel bent x pipe exhaust kit from TTI. going to go with chambered mufflers
 
Had to shovel 10 inches of snow from in front of the garage door and check the trickle chargers on both cars....This sucks!.....C'mon spring...
 
I sold my 63 Harley and all my stash of parts. I'm putting the money to good use --spending money on my 68 Satty project like I always wanted to. Hired a body shop to do work that I used to do myself. Got both quarter skins installed, new windshield put in, Now working on hail dents. Ordered: Dynomax Super Turbo mufflers, 4 Keystone classic's, 4 235-60-15 tires, vinyl roof, window seals-fuzzies, carpet, front seat covers, seat foam, ordered new Roadrunner hood today, tomorrow ordering new rear leaf springs. MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ME !!!...........................MO
After a bout with winter weather, I finally got my rear springs and rubber bushings today in Omaha. Also took my stainless trim to be polished and a couple dents taken out. 4 weeks wait on that. Got home and UPS Santa had delivered the new seat covers and foam buns. The foam buns will make the seats look factory new, and be easy to install. The seat covers are from PUI and are top notch . I can't imagine Legendary as being any better. Appointment for truck freight to deliver the new AMD Roadrunner hood tomorrow. ...........................MO

The man in the big brown truck delivered the new 3/8 fuel line, Body line clip set and sending unit I ordered. the cruise was also to try and drive off some of the gas in the tank so I can install the sending unit.

Got the gauge cluster back from JC Auto. They did a really nice job. Installed the cluster and trim pad today. Tomorrow the switch plate.

Anybody that's replaced a gauge cluster knows it's almost impossible to secure the pin harness to the PCB; there's just not enough room. So the wife got underneath the dash and installed it for me. Pretty cool. Of course I helped by holding the bezel steady.
