After over 20 years of lusting for this very car. And after nearly 18 months of getting in a position to pull that trigger.
The car is finally in MY garage ,,,and will be for a very VERY long time to come.

I plan to update / change some underhood details .
Like the valve cover breather should be chrome.

Ive Replaced the incorrect black dist cap with a new tan one I had here already .

Im going to pull the fan blade and put a spacer in it to get the fan blades more inside the shroud this afternoon

its missing the heater hose support at the alternator so I plan to order that one and a new one for the pass side inner fender at same time

The 67 master cyl will stay . Im thinking maybe next year I may change it to power disc brakes .  The modern  Mopar battery will stay. I MIGHT update the hoses and battery cables  to something closer to OE ,,,MAYBE . Haven't really decided yet
