What did you do to your Mopar today?

[YY1]

Yes.

I even apologized to my car before the drilling started for my pass side mirror.

I worked on the plumbing for the new master cylinder. I had to redo a few things due to tight clearance on the inner fender. Over all I am happy with the way it turned out. You can see the proportioning valve mounted on a bracket under the master. I still have to run the rear brake line, which comes off the engine side of the proportioning valve.

Let me know if you ever get those filler caps to seal

 

[qkcuda]

I am hoping that they seal better than the lids on the cast iron masters. I never had one that didn't leak.

Drove the Charger all day to run errands, get materials to service motorcycles...then got a call on my way home. Michelle's daughter has been driving her Durango, since she broke her arm and can't drive her stick shift Dakota. "I heard a thump then it started shaking". On the highway.

I found this on the right front wheel.

The one remaining? Was finger tight.

Bought studs and nuts. Got 3 holding it on, took it to the last shop to have hands on it, and dropped it off. They can mess with it.

At least nobody got hurt.

Very lucky glad no one got hurt

Well, not my Mopar, but i went to one of our local Pick-N-Pull wrecking yards, at the 50% off sale, for Memorial Day, and pulled lower control arms off a 64 Valiant, for my rebuilding purposes.
Everything came apart quite easy, for a 59 year old car.
Nice not having rust issues out west, here in Commiefornia, Arizona, Nevada, and other states.

Took it to Cars and Coffee

Fred and my wife went to the first local Cruise-In of the year this evening. Lovely weather,
Lots of cars and a nice dinner with Lisa after the usual annoyingly busy week:

@Sahara
I have no idea how this shot turned out black and white. Damn cell phone is smarter
than me...


Got Fred off the main drag and onto the side street in front of the dinner location,
out of the hot sun. He did just fine with the whole drive; it was just what the doctor
ordered to get him out this evening.
I even romped on him a couple times for good measure, which he seemed to enjoy.

That plate really stands out nicely on the bumper. I’m very pleased
that you like it. Those kind of plates are getting super hard to find, even here. The current and future ones are a cheap vinyl decal on an aluminum plate. Road salt (actually calcium chloride up here) gets between the plate and the decal, corroding the plate and separating the decal. They look like crap.
Oh, and a tip that a lot of us locals like to use: when we drive south we use hex head or Allen fasteners to hold the plate on. Most thieves have wrenches or pliers but most don’t carry Allen keys with them. Getting our plates stolen off of our vehicles is a fairly common occurrence.

It's interesting how pics taken by others turn out sometimes. Same Fred, same event, different folks
taking the pics:

That color is something else in the right light.


My wife's shot, self-professed "not a car photographer".

 

[moparedtn]

Wow, over 125 cars there tonight but Fred seemed to be popular. I found this
pic on FB by a nice lady associated with the local car club...

Not much worry of that around here for a multiple of reasons. Think I'll start a thread about this subject....

Local show today. Weather was glorious.

 

[Black_Sheep]

I ran it up to operating temperature and topped off the coolant and ATF. I also cleaned the trunk and reorganized it.

There’s still room for a cooler and a couple lawn chairs…

 

[mmissile]

Took the passenger's seat out, to fix the release cable. It was stuck all the way forward.

Troubleshoooting the tranvsmission " no-go" situation. I cannot wrap my head around how it could drive fine one day and won 't move the next.

I guess the only good thing is that I drove it into the garage the night before it would work.

There are 2 car shows that I was going to take it to today and tomorrow. They would have been its first shows.

So, the Porsche gets to go to both.

I didn't do nothing to mine today. Or yesterday. Or the day before.

Stick or auto? If auto, have you done the obvious - check fluid, check linkages? Does it move or nudge or change idle at all when you move the shifter? I've had autos have "enough" fluid when hot, but when cold...nope.
