He went to a car event, Blueprint had a booth there, too good to pass up . . .
Kinda like going to Costco for TP and walking out with a Sectional Couch, Gazebo, or Gun Safe. Ya know, just can't pass up a good deal :D
We are all in agreement that the 408 was a good choice. And, we do want to see a burnout video, even if it is the first in 30

The slants gonna be too cool I wanna drive that. It’s going in 1964 dart wagon that I have dibs on. I don’t have any interest in this at all now that has the 408 but it should be way easier to get top Dollar out of!

I had a 67 valiant with the slant 6.Canadian winter, it always started and had an awesome heater.Was my second car as a teenager ,drove it like I stole it.Ended up trading it for tools that I still use today.
 
Jim, tailgate question.......do those have the rubber blocks so they dont rattle all the time? most of my trucks need them, and of course they are nla. curious what you have come up with. there must be several home grown remedies.

Still have the original bumpers but I’m sure Steele has something that would work.
 
mr Jim, question sir; i am stripping the ram charger my son wrecked back in dec. it is very sad, the more i strip, the more i see she is rust free underside. i just pulled the front carpet, there is no rust at all on the floor panels. unfortunately they are buckled. i am contemplating pulling them any way, perhaps i could straighten some sections enough to use on other projects. what are you thoughts sir? as you may know, the aftermarket panels arent great..........

I’m far from an expert on crash repair. I have only cut out panels and replaced them. One of the other real professionals may chime in and save me now…. Please.

I think this is probably something that deserves its own thread. If you have buckling, it seems pretty likely that you have structural issues that will need to be addressed so that panels fit right, etc.

yeah, i dont mean to derail Jim's thread. sorry Jim.
oh yes crash, this thing is not savable. i didnt know the floor was buckled until i pulled the carpet out. just saving what could be used on something else. idk, trying to use those floors later could more trouble then they are worth. its just, they are right here.
 
I'd save the entire hulk if possible, then if the floors are actually needed, someone could grab ahold of the rockers or whatever and yank it out until it was straighter, then salvage the floor. I always like to pull on something sacrificial because it's really hard to pull on something you are going to save, too much damage from clamps etc.
 
No worries just got a lot going on. Spent a week on a road trip with a buddy to get a trailer and move some cars around the country. Now we’re getting ready to go out to spring fling in the Los Angeles area with the movie star

Going to get the chrome right now. Next week should be all hands on deck full bore ahead on it.

Well well well, there you are you little rascal. Loving the re-chromed bling. From the pictures, that shop does quality work. The light bezels look outstanding.
