One wire lock-up, 4 spd automatic w overdrive into A-body.

Well, I pulled the engine, transmission and k-member out from under the car for the first time ever. It was actually pretty cool. I sold the trans, torque converter and driveshaft Sunday afternoon to am aspiring Mopar fan.

I dropped the K-member off at one of the only remaining real hot tanks in the valley. They said they would call me when its done. Then I'll weld it up, reinforce it and make sure everything fits before doing so.

I need to pull some accessory items off the old motor to re-use on the new one and paint everything up. I have some paint peeling near one shock tower, so I ,ay just repaint the trunk while I have the paint out and mixed up. I coated it with bead liner to help hide some of the pitting it acquired over the years from the old rubber mat that trapped water under it from time to time. It's currently black.

It won't be long until I'm under there clearancing and reinforcing the torsion bar cross member on the driver's side. Then I will still have to make a rear trans mount. I'm also going to weld the torsion bar crossmember solidly across the length of the floor just like my sub frame connectors are to make it stronger.

I ran out of camera batteries, and was so busy doing all this work alone I didn't get one picture. I think my buddy may have sapped one or two, but I have to check.

I'll make sure to have plenty of spare batteries on hand when it comes time to fit the 200R4 into place. as well as, the additional reinforcing that I'm going to do to strengthen the mid-section of the car.

Oh yah, I also have to fit the GenV Vintage air unit in the car, and upgrade the dash. Mine only has a 120 mph speedo and I found a much nicer 150 mph speedo at the last swap meet I went to.
