What did you do to your Mopar today?

Ok guys, I’m gonna post a couple pics. My car is way on the back burner right now for many reasons but there were a couple spots driving me nuts.
One was on the trunk so I rough sanded it just to get a good coat of primer on to hopefully stop the mess.
Second, the hood had a really bad dent, looks like a widow maker fell right on it. I fanged the dent up then tried to slowly shrink the metal back into place. I’m almost there but it looks so much better. Long way to go on this car.

Finished my first fabrication project, driver's seat adapter brackets. These are seats out of a 2012 Mustang.

Damn, thats a nice lookin' car..

Factory curious yellow?
 
I bought $400 of parts.

2 new front tires
cat whiskers
BSM trim clips
single fill air shock valves

...and I'm finally repairing the rollers and painting the brackets on my bucket seats.

Car is almost ready to come home from the paint shop.

I'll update my "The under 5K paint thread" when I get it back.
 
Drove it with the new 3 in 1, 1" phenolic spacer. I tried the open, 4 hole and 4 hole tapered and got the best results with the 4 hole pieces. More torque on the streets, better throttle response, no hot start issues, blah blah blah. The hood and the air cleaner arent too fond of me though.

I should have just enough space inside the scoop for the Wilson ported Manifold and 1" carb spacer which is next, also 2" drop spindles / wheels & Tires.

And what do i find, a crack in the middle cambearing and a broken compression ring. But the walls and cam looks in good shape with no edges.

Aaron decided it was easier to replace and I my hood hinges from Fesler came in.
