Ken, I emptied the trash can for shakey, filled both heaters and refilled the Kerosine can but left it in the mopad by the fridge with the bait in it.  You shouldn't need the kerosine as what is in the heaters should last the entire weekend.  I am leaving for Jeff City Friday morning and will talk to you when I get back Monday.

  hemi68charger, well he still working on it. It not his house, just left overs from his rental. Nices looking garage you have as well I will add. Is that a real Hemi or a plactic Mock up? Reason I ask is the is the crank snot is the same color of the block, which is sort of a odd color in it self unless it is in expoy primer.

My garage is not pretty either, but does have a $20,000.00 Audiophile grade system in it.   600 watts a side Mono Blocked baby.

it's a real 426 Hemi...   It's the motor that will eventually find it's way into my '68 Hemi Charger R/T... The shop that did the long block coated the engine and heads in a corrosion control paint.. I'll be painting it shortly after I get the k-member powder-coated and the cradel set up for the suspension/k-member/engine/tranny build up.......   nice looking '69 there...   :thumbs:

Well Allen the light should be closer. Hum is that a good thing ??? ;)

I did not get to due much today, manly get in the way. As normal for most people, Allen was running around town trying to find parts. Seems he could not find his shoes. ;D I had a painter tell me that was a reason he did not come to work one day. Went home and not there, I knew I saw them, he came back with no shoes again and it was cold. ;) They where in the trunk, knew I saw them. Sure hope you guys know I mean brake shoes. Then the brake cylinders he bought 5 years ago where wrong and off he went again.

Troy, another friend and I sat around and BS about cars, for being young he was not dumb I will add. I could not work on the hood like I wanted. Fender and door was still off and in the way. Hood is off the Challenger. We final got the Right door nd fender on the car. Found that the left door will not open for some reason and have the wrong P/S pump lines. But those problems will be address later.

Challenger is leaving the garage Thursday and heading to the exhaust shop, them to another shop to do the final work and wake the sleeping 340.

I will get the hood ruffed in this week I hope. Many time Allen will not have versions of sugar plums dancing in his head. But visons of tooling around in a drop top Challenger with a 340 in his head. Last PIC of the Challenger in the Moped Garage. I am sure this is the first time in 5 years the only major body part missing is the hood.

The door opened today just a little rusty, the liquid wrench must of helped, but still have to pull pretty hard on the handle.  Well, as Ken said it is off to the shop at noon, just one shop though, Jim Riskoski, an old mopar drag racer who ownes his own shop will be installing the exhaust, filling the fluids and firing up the 340.  Troy is an honor student and a very tough wrestler.  He can also turn a wrench.
