***SOLD***SOLD***SOLD***SOLD*** I'd like to thank all who were interested in the car. It went to a good home this afternoon.

Here are four more pics.

Pics are worth a thousand words. Here's more. The floor pans are intact. The frame has had a couple of repairs. This is a AZ car, so it's not too bad. Car was original maroon in color. Rear end is original factory road gears. This car did have the aluminum panel that went across between the tail...

With heavy heart I've got to let this car go. It needs a good home asap. The car is in Morley, MI. You would need to come get it. There is well over $15,000.00 into this car, I'm only asking for $4,000.00. Can't go any lower. It is stored right now in the garage and it's covered. Basic specs...

We're having difficulties getting photos shrunk down to post on this. Hopefully by tomorrow we will get it figured out. This is an Arizona car and didn't have much rust. Quarter panels were replaced and I had some weld done on frame. It's not a perfect product. It grinds going into 3rd gear...

Here are some of the pictures of the car!

Well, I'm picking up where I left off Aug. 26th, I had my mopar mechanic help me put the intake gasket on correctly with sealer where it's supposed to be. We fired it up and it doesn't smoke nearly as much as before, but still has some smoke coming out. One person asked me if the...

Havn't found anyone I can trust around here to advise me except you guys in A-body. I still wonder why part of the time it didn't smoke since rebuild. I'm gonna take the intake off tomorrow and see what things look like underneath. One thing to mention that I've been thinking about today is...

OK Guys, I disconnected the pcv valve, no change. I don't know leak down test, or how to do them. I'm pretty sure the rings are not chrome. Once again, I'm not an engine mechanic so, anything major I'm gonna half to get someone else to help me through it. There are so many different...

Here are a couple of pics of the car.

Dodge Freak, Ya, I spent about 3 hours, not just tightening, but cleaning the manifold as good as I could get it. It had a dark discoloration here and there mixed in with oil on silver paint. It looks like the gasket is some kind of pressed cardboard. I ran it in the garage last night again...

Well, I appreciate the responses from all of you. At this point, from what I can see after reading your comments, I'm not very optimistic about getting out of this very easy, or very cheap to say the least. I spent about three hours or so today going around the intake manifold, tightening up...

I have a 360 motor that I've had rebuilt and it's got blue smoke coming out of both exhaust pipes, more so on deceleration. The sleaves were not honed because they appeared to be in good shape. The motor only has two or three hours running time on it since the rebuild. What things could cause...

I have an old A-833 four speed trans. that grinds going into 3rd gear. I've been told that it needs a new synchronizer. How much of a job is it to fix? It's in a 76 duster that I have put a lot of money in and I want to sell the car. Dale

I'd like to thank every one who responded to this thread. The guy who was helping out with the car came and hooked up the green ground wire to the relay and hooked up a wire on the coil. The car runs. I learned a lot. Now the motor gets too hot. Maybe it's the timing. Not a serious problem. I...
