Put mr 6 pack cam in my 67 440 hp in my coronet. And was looking at the engine with just the valve covers off everything else was buttoned up.. And i thought man these old mopar rb engines look mean and fast just sitting there. Rocker shafts just looks cool

same ol story .... started the stripping an tear down at shop ... go to see whats up ... find it under a tree in the back of the lot. no cover and no prime on any of the metal that had been done. ... she is home now ...... il just do it my self. .... but im getting bettter at metal work. useing my truck as a mule. ... i did get the rockers done. ... don't laff at the welds ... useing a gasless 110 flux core wire feed. .... didn't burn any holes in it ... nutin a grinder won't fix ... lol

My hats off to you. It's very difficult to weld thin sheet metal with Flux Core. I've done it, but it's not easy, not to mention the fact that it's very tedious cleaning the weld before striking the next arc... you can't weld over slag and expect it to hold together over time. Sometimes it's the only route to take however, especially in areas with old dirty metal that can't be removed and replaced for whatever reason. Of course, shiny new "clean" metal generates little or no slag obviously, but the process is still pretty tough on thin materials.

 

[67 Mopar]

Not a B-Body but...
I did wash my truck the other day for the first time since last winter... I even waxed it!

 

[hacksaw]

Was up till 1:30 AM last night , finishing up detailing on Brutus in prep for one of my favorite car shows today. Woke up this morning to RAIN and it wouldn't stop long enough for the roads to dry. Well, it's clean and shiney for the next time..........................MO

drove it to the next city over to get a mower belt and test the temp with the air on

ran steady 160 without AC, 170-180 with AC, climbing while stopped.

probably should see where it tops out (if it does)

I need to flush the cooling system too.
