What did you do to your Mopar today?

[jbearden]

Got the 383 in my 67 Charger running for the first time in 21-22 yrs.

It was saved from a backyard where it had been sitting since 90-91.Tags expired in 91.It took a little doing,but it was worth every banged knuckle,curse word and dollar spent just to hear it breathe to life.

Got my 383 painted and started putting stuff back on all new gaskets etc.

Went from this to the orange correct for this block.

Finally got the tranny coolant lines done so they cleared the B&M shift cable, finished installing the shifter, started making a set of plug wire brackets and started the 3" stainless X pipe install. Next weak my vintage air mock up unit should be hear and I can FINALLY get the dash mounted and start the wiring which means it will be close to being ready to fire "FINALLY".

looked at it snug in the garage from the driveway as i chipped the ice off the windshield of my jeep at 6am.

 

[Ron 73]

I spent the day in the garage painting some parts and getting caught up in some things, It was 5 degrees when i went out, but it did manage 7 before going the other way again... snow and windy, not a good day for cruising around in the cars today! unless it be a jeep or in my case the Ram, But i did come in to a blueberry pie baking in the oven, and my granddaughter proud as can be with some cookie batter she and grandma were concocting lol.... Good chocolate chips to, make ya burp!

Awwwwwww boy....Fresh Blueberry Pie, you're killing me man. With Vanilla Ice cream? And cookies as well? You are one lucky man. My wife would screw up a box of cheese noodles let alone any kind of pie. Enjoy a piece for me would ya?

 

[Ron 73]

You got it bud! No problem at all, no ice cream tonight though, were kind of out!

After a couple of cold snaps, the holidays, being sick as hell, a month of not starting it up, I couldn't get Avocado Gold started no matter what I did. It wasn't the battery, and I poured gas in the carb- still no dice.

So last night a mechanic buddy of mine dropped by, after 20 minutes of coaxing and tinkering, STARTED RIGHT UP!

Oh man, I had a smile from ear to ear when she roared to life. My buddy looked at me with a big smile and said, "*******, that sound! It gets my nuts tingling when I hit the gas!"

Took my Charger out for a spin. It was like time slowed down. Everything was right with the world. My car was running great, the streetlights flashed by, I couldn't stop smiling and patting the dashboard.

OUR CARS ARE SO ******* AMAZING! Don't know what I'd do without my Mopar.
