Hey everyone. Made it back home safe and sound. 80 degrees feels like AC now, so I have that going for me. Feels good to be back. 73 hours in this week including travel today. Will be a nice check. Maybe my 6pack intake will be a wash now....
Now you know why my garage in Kansas has AC. :D
Your bride didn't bat an eye when you told me about the six pack and air cleaner $$...lucky man!!

Well I can say at 2:27 CST I officially completed the need to do list for the Barracuda.
It was a 14 month project of countless hours with my good neighbor Tom whom I'll always be indebted to.
Lots of phone calls chasing parts, refurbishing parts, sending parts out for restoration, etc...you've all been there done that.
Lots of time laying there in bed at night thinking about what I needed to do, or how I was going to do it.
I finally learned it's a simplistic process and with patience and time it WILL all work out.
And of course special thanks to my bride for allowing me to do all I wanted with this special MOPAR, NEVER questioning what we were doing or what I spent.:rolleyes:
And of course thanks to each and every one of you here. Your a very special group who answered any question I had, and given me valuable MOPAR/car knowledge I would of never gotten any where else.
Now I will enjoy my very stout vodka/orange G-Zero!!:thumbsup:
Well done good Sir! I can only hope mine turns out as well. Albeit different but process is same. I think Grey Goose is flying in and whispering in your ear, next project, next project! Think of all the mistakes you know you made that none of us will ever see. Get another one and refine the process! Hah! She will kill me if you let her read this!
 
Welding on trailer pretty much wrapped up. Drilled 5 2-1/4” holes for lights. Went and bought an Irwin hole saw, way better than others i have used. 1/4 of the time to drill one hole.

Haha you know Grey Goose is my choice....time for a well deserved break.
You know we are never REALLY done....:rolleyes:
I think I'll just sit back and watch the Demon paint job come about.
Back to ya!!
P.S. Cheryl will laugh at that one...when she gets home from a Saturday work day...over achiever.

I have a set of Irwin taps and they are great!!! :thumbsup:

It doesn't surprise me that their hole saws are better... :D
 
Whew! I am worn out. I moved over 500 lbs of dirt and gravel all around the yard today filling in low spots and resloping the ground around the house.

Beer time!

All older Irwin was good stuff. Don’t know about more recent. I know they moved Vice Grip production to China and have heard quality ain’t the same. :(
Irwin is part of the ever growing Stanley Tools empire...

Tariffs on china imports. Price of chinese innertubes went through the roof.
