I pulled the dash out of it to clean and install new Classic Instruments gauges. Besides having water temp from 40* to 220* all the gages send information to the F.A.S.T. system, or as I understand it, it will work with the Holley system to record the data from all the gages.

Is the color scheme matching the house intentional or coincidental?
I have to say I'll miss the 'Cuda, being a '70 'Cuda owner myself.....

I noticed that also and don't forget to notice the tall trees and tall Larry.

Post #7

Boxes and boxes of new parts. One box is 77'' long, a little longer and Patsy could use it as my casket and it would save her a ton of money. The boxes will be re-purposed this week. One of our sales people has a toddler so this weekend the boxes will become a Fort, a Castle, and or a tunnel. Oh what fun.

Next set of pictures has grill mounted in fascia, SRT. We are trying real hard to get car to paint next week. We have to get hood mounted so it will match the rest of the car.

Sometimes you get more than you pay for. Wires for the smart windows, look at all the extra splices I got for one easy payment. I owe a big thank you to John Donato. John helped make a game plan to make all this spaghetti more palatable and work as intended.

Back to work

I got a few used parts to put on the car. You can't have a race car without a few used parts. In my car I always have something in it that is from my lost friend and partner in crime, Jerry Newsom. I saved myself a few bucks but the best part was the waking and searching.

Surprise, I found a serial # on the car in two places. Had local dealership punch it in and zero information returned. Its like it never was made

Now entering the phase of, is this protected enough from potential over spray. Is this tight and finished or do I need to revisit.

A tip of the hat to my parts guy at the local dealership. He has helped me find the unusual parts, like the threaded backup plate for the hood hinges.

Goal today: fused test wiring harness for the car.

I now have windows that work. If you windows wont stay up they won't let you race.

If this is an original dragpak ie a 09 like mine which is #53, at the time, I think the bodies may have been assembly line reject bodies(fell off, etc), or order cancellations, something like that, at least that is what I think I remember the guys on the hotline telling me, wasn't the best of times for Mopar, but the challenger was hot. Tueton or Donato would be able to fill in the details. Where was the Vin # found?
