What did you do to your Mopar today?

I sat in my lawn chair and watched the guy install the new vinyl roof on my 68 Satellite project. That and putting on custom wheels are two of the most impressive things you can do to a car..IMO..........................MO

Finally raised front of car on to my 10.5" tall chocks. Made them to tall ad a little short. Added A new top board 23" long from 19.5"and shortened from 12" to 10.5". Raise back of car another 6" tomorrow. Then the fun starts, hope I can pull rear trans bushing without dropping h-pipe. Then remove manual, reverse pattern valve body from trans.

Dude said Mustang right?! OK that's the girlfriend's '65 fastback but unfortunately I had to pull my build from the shop working on it and stick it into the garage until I can find someone that takes their craft of auto building seriously and can run a business. Ridiculously smart and good builder but does his own thing 6 of the 8 working hours in the day and works on cars whenever he feels like it while complaining about lack of making money.

Oops, my Mopar build is a 426 hemi Belvedere (before a moderator jumps on me).
 
Re-set the axle end play on my 69 GTX 8 3/4. Thought about changing the oil...thought about.
 
Finally found someone to paint the Satellite using the single stage paint I already have that isn't going to charge out the *** for the minuscule amount of body work the car needs.

If they do a good job, they'll likely get my Dakota, my wagon, and my Coronet.
 
Took the '15 Scat Pack to the dealer for its every-six-month oil change. They had a leftover T/A on the lot marked $8,000 off sticker. If it had been a 6.4 and not a 5.7, I might have traded the Scat Pack.

The guy I bought my Satellite from same crap. Start a job then dick around ask for money. Great metal fabrication skills when he felt like it. Waste of talent.

Just for peace of mind, I would want him to use whatever primer, sealer, thinner, etc. that the paint manufacturer calls for. Assure compatability.........................MO
 
Dropped off my trans at Liberty gear to install the Passon overdrive kit.
 
Cleaned tools and laid down the corrugated carpet to lay on. Rear trans bushing next.
