What did you do to your Mopar today?

[qkcuda]

Drove to a Mopar show today. I met Dave6T4 and a couple of other members, and saw some cars I recognized. Here are a few pictures.

I finally put my springs back together. Those little band clamps were a bear. But we got them.

 

[Scott Engelhardt]

Pulled the 727 out of the Satellite, going to replace some seals.

Pulled the exhaust manifolds off my 383, replaced the spark plugs and installed manifold gaskets. After 2 years of work the car is going in for head pipes and inspection. Looking forward to finally driving my car.

Spent the day yesterday swapping out the 3.91s to a much friendlier 3.55s.

Its like a different car

Put the xmsn back in, and put the car back together. It was getting late and I was getting tired, so kickdown waits until today. Then refill with fluid and let it run for a bit. Still on jackstands in case of shift adjustments

Xmsn is military abbreviation for Transmission.

Replaced the metal behind the hood hinge area, i have to do the drives side too, and a large part of where the skirt drops down.. rust bubbles near all the weld points
Wanna sand/repaint my whole bay but the cost of paint is WTF?! so... will have to do it anyway though..
Also removed everything off the firewall and MC to clean and get it all ready..

BTW.. does anyone know what the item above the ballast is? I don't ever reall seeing it before on any of my cars...

Drove the Imperial all day on Saturday - cars & coffee, a drive around the lake, and ice cream for the lovely wife and I.

Finished up restoring the correct two-piece '66-only console (finally) on the Coronet, and need to do a minor repair on the '67-'70 console I had in it and prep it for sale.

This was a few days ago, prior to attending the WOMO meet.

Treated the Charger to some detailing of the 40+ year old paint and interior. A good soak of Meguiar's No. 7 followed by No. 26. Changed out a driver's side marker that has been bugging me for probably 25 years. NOS in stock. (in my hoard).

 

[Islandkent]

I went and checked out the rear end housing. And this evening before I came in, I thought I'd get the plate holder blasted for primer.
Little steps closer.

 

[icetech]

Damn that housing looks good.. makes me want to pull mine to repaint it, and i haven't even driven it yet..
