Afternoon gentlemen 8 and sunny now it was fairly cloudy most of the day. Not much happening today picked up a parts washer sitting on the side of the road. The drain needs fixing and the pump needs a fix but its free so I can work with it. We were going to go to the car show on the mainland Saturday for a car show but I bowed out because I don`t want to be a drag on the other guys first show in 3 years and also because the stinkin ferries are a disaster right now with not enough staff cancelled sailings it just a shit show so to hell with it for me anyway.
All the kids coming for turkey dinner tomorrow so looking forward to that.
Have a great rest of your day

In Spring, a young man's fancy turns to...

an old man's fancy turns to... serpentine kit, A/C, custom rad with twin electric fans and condenser, and a full re-wire front to back.

put my retirement off a year, but by golly we're going to enjoy it when we get there...

stay tuned for pix in a couple of weeks

The day started off not too bad BUT then the rain came along and ruined everything.
Isn`t Keith`s region getting snow!
Later people

Well well well, hello again, it`s kind of a slow day. Lots of relatives coming over Sunday.

Good morning 1 but sunny as a get out so should hit 10-20 lol today. Got the motor out of the Valiant yesterday and started sanding the body down getting all 5 layers of paint off. Just going to putter today.
Have a great day

Well after a lot of consideration humming and hawing I have decided to put the Dart up for sale. Theres lots of reasons none are for public consumption but I just felt like its time. If it does not sell no big deal. I have only listed it on West Coast Mopars for now and will post it on other sites as I go along. I still have the Valiant so you are not getting rid of me.
Take care

We avoided the snow but we did get down to -12 on Saturday. The mountains took on a pile of snow. But today is much better, a high of 8.

Sorry to hear about the Dart Reg, but you'll still be able to play with the the Convertible!

Stay safe and have a great day!

Good day all, well we are getting a bit of snow today and some really cool weather.
Reg, sorry to hear that you're selling the Dart, hopefully all works out for you. I pondered selling the Duster, because I haven't driven it very much over the past 4 years. But I ultimately decided that it wasn't eating any grass were it's sitting and I don't want to go through sellers remorse again. Have a good day all.

Funny how a few of us get the same thoughts at the same time...might be an age or health thing.

by Ragtacker Mon Apr 18, 2022 4:23 pm

Good afternoon cold just cold very windy and raining but other than that ….. ya Dan sellers remorse has turned into listing remorse but I will deal with it until some asshat starts picking away at the ad then it will come off and I will drive it I am not dealing with dB`s what so ever. Got the Valiant way up in the air now so will get set to paint the under side and the day it warms up bam paint!
Hope you all had a great day even if somebody was getting snow lol

by jgl360 Tue Apr 19, 2022 5:28 am

Good morning, looks cloudy so far and rain forecast for afternoon or so.

by Ragtacker Tue Apr 19, 2022 5:52 am

Good morning 5 looks like rain but haven`t really looked at it but if you live on the west coast expect rain. Hmm fire trucks just went by thats not good.
Have a great day

Good morning all, raining and cool today at least the snow didn’t last long. I planned on pulling the car out this coming weekend and getting it ready for our first all Mopar show Spring Fling. Just want to make sure that the car is still mechanically fit. Hopefully I still will have time because it’s not until the third week of May. I’m only really worried about parts supplies.
Have a great day.

by jgl360 Tue Apr 19, 2022 10:28 am

The rain has started, great for ducks and new plants.

by **Keith Mopar** Tue Apr 19, 2022 2:24 pm

Good day. seems like everyone is getting some precipitation along with us. Started out as snow but has now turned to rain and only a high of 7 and the same crappy weather for tomorrow!!!.

Should have some pics of parts of the interior I have been working on for tomorrow. Made some great progress over the weekend.

Dan hopefully you can take the Duster out for a drive and clear out some old cob webs!

Stay safe.

by Ragtacker Wed Apr 20, 2022 6:08 am

Good morning 4 and clear but rain will move in this afternoon rumour has it. Looking forward to the pics Keith.
Have a great day

by **smoken340** Wed Apr 20, 2022 11:34 am

Good afternoon. Bright and sunny today , with temperatures around 10. But the wind feels cool. The little bit of snow that we got Monday, has melted. Should be able to get the Duster out on Sunday. Spring fever is really starting to get to me.
Have a good day.

by jgl360 Thu Apr 21, 2022 7:37 am

Good morning, nice and sunny at the moment, temp of 8 and should reach 15 range. I am not changing my family's snow tires this year or any other as my back is not willing any more. getting older is FUN, it's time to take it easier as hard work when we are young sure catches up.
Have a great day and stay safe.

by Ragtacker Thu Apr 21, 2022 7:56 am

Good morning 7 and raining looks like that the story today.
JG you have to do whats needed to maintain your life comfortably and those of us with twitchy backs know exactly what you mean so take care of it and do not feel bad at all.
Have a great day

by **Keith Mopar** Fri Apr 22, 2022 1:31 pm

Happy Friday.
Crappy day here rain and snow on off.

Made some progress on the car but broke one of my plastic moldings, so the glue is out. Will be working on the back seat tomorrow hopefully.

Here is my interior pic as of this afternoon.

by **smoken340** Fri Apr 22, 2022 1:53 pm

Good afternoon. We had a half decent day here today. It was mostly sunny and around 13. Supposed to cool right down to 9 tomorrow but go right up to 20 on Sunday with sun. So it looks like a drive in the Duster is still on schedule.
Keith she is looking good, almost like a car again. lol
JG, I can see where your coming from on the tire change. I was going to take mine to Green and Ross, this year. But the son in law has made the offer to do it for me this year, as long as he can do it in my garage using my compressor and air gun.

by jgl360 Fri Apr 22, 2022 3:35 pm

Well Dan good help is hard to find but when they volunteer it sure feels good.
