Took some pictures today...

Okay, like I said in another post this afternoon - I was busy moving stuff around and cleaning the shop up so I could get my SS/T back inside. It's been sitting outside ever since the 'bu came home and it's been bugging me to no end that it was stuck outside. I also seized the opportunity to hang some new shop lights (three had burned up their ballasts) and just do some general upkeep that can't be done when the cars are in there. Naturally, we got one of our patented late afternoon Flor-i-duh thunderstorms so everything got wet - but one by one I dragged 'em in and dried 'em off...

Here's couple shots of Pinky...

Parts cars.

The green one on the left is a '73 Duster 340 that I bought to get the 340, K-Member, and disk brake set-up from for the gold car. Kinda sad that it was hacked up so bad - it was numbers matching and HEAVILY optioned...but would have been A LOT OF WORK to put back together... The Malibu is sitting in front of it.

The light blue one on the right is a '72 Swinger that was the parts car for Tam's Swinger. Her car was rust free from the top down, but that vinyl top had just destroyed the dutchman. They don't repop those so I bought an entire car just to cut the dutchman out of it.

Just haven't felt like scrapping them...you NEVER know what parts you're going to need tomorrow...

Mopar Guy that just happens to own a couple chebbies...

Never had it on the track. Took it once YEARS ago and they wouldn't let me run it because the fuel line was routed on the inside of the frame rail...the guy was just being a d*ck...he said he was just following the rule book... I re-routed the fuel line a few years ago...but our local track is shut down now so it's a long haul to get a time slip...maybe one day I'll load it up and go to Gainesville or Bradenton...

what takes us so long cutting grass is the kneeling and praying to the Green God, giving our thanks that he didn't make the same mistake he did with the sky......
