Blast from the past, wow took this 8 years ago already, been driving her for six seasons now! It was a lot of work but worth all the effort. For those still slaving away on your rides just keep trying to get some goals accomplished each week and you’ll get there and the rewards when you...

My custom fit DC cover.

I look forward to checking it out when you finish her up.

If you see my car there I’m either looking at cars or sitting BSing with friends on that parking lot island right close to the cars, ask for me “Danny” I’d like to see your ride.

Yes that was mine and thanks for the compliment.

Thanks fellas, the car is the Star!

The car picked up a bit of hardware in 2 of the three shows I put it in so far this summer. A Best of Show at my alma mater the “Northern Alberta Institute of Technology” where I took my formal training and A-Body and Best of Show at “Western Mopar Madness” which was a bit of a shock...

Looking good Jim but I’m worried I might not live long enough to see you finish this baby, lol, just yanking your chain. Not sure what your using to protect your bare metal parts, just want to let you know i’ve had great results with a product called Sharkhide, super easy to apply I just use a...

Hope those help you out, any other details you need Jason feel free to ask.

72 340 Special

Thanks Jim, nice that they liked it enough to include it.

I’m getting paid in pride! Lol.

My little old SPECIAL A-Body Mopar made the cut for Legendary Auto Interiors 2024 Calendar, just wanted to thank the guys and gals at Legendary Interiors for the pick and share.

The old girls has been put away on stands with a full tank of high test Shell gas and a bit of stabilizer and new oil and filter. Will oil the cylinders and pull the battery and put it on a tender and keep a bit of heat on in the garage over this damn Canadian winter. That should do the trick.

I have a bit of a leaky lower seal on my power steering box and was wanting to change it out but how to remove the old one? I was told by one fellow that did his that he removed the Pitman arm and the snap ring then started the car up and turned the steering wheel and the pressure inside the...

My 24 ft V-nose does have a pretty decent amount of space up front for extras, although I use my truck box for most stuff, and for camping out in if needed.

Sounds like you have a plan Jim, if there’s any insights or knowledge I can provide from 40 years of spraying feel free to ask. I can tell you that I chose to take mine off the rotisserie and put back on my casters since I had sprayed all the insides and underneath and would not need to spin...

It was a pretty good job but not quite that good, lol!

It’s funny when I was taking these pictures in front of the school this summer a guy driving a 70 Chevelle saw me an pulled up to talk and he went to the same school 2 years before me, luckily 2 of my best friends were Mopar guys back then so I wasn’t lonely. Thanks for the compliment...

That sounds pretty familiar and my buddies were seldom around when the gas station stop came around, lol, that was alright I felt like a rich guy making $5.70 an hour in 79 after school. Come winter it was back on the city bus.

Hey Kevin hope you had a fun summer with your Duster, man those were the days the best of times, wish I could go back with a camera this time I have no pictures from school with all the cars. This one is behind the school in the parking lot where we hung out with our cars and the odd burnout...

Photo shoot, paying no attention to the sign.

In front of her old haunt my high school of 42 years ago.

Agreed A56, they could have moved it back a bit.

Thanks 340sFastback, I'm pretty proud of how it turned out, it's a special car at least to me that required my best effort.

Looking good Jim, what was your plan on paint on the outside? We’re you going to attempt it yourself or did you find someone to trust it with?

Glad it helps, that was why I posted my build in enough detail that other enthusiasts could take on these parts of their builds with some confidence and know what it will look like when they finish.

Before and after pictures to judge the sheen.

I can provide a bit of the reasoning on why I decided to use this paint on my dash understanding that as a professional painter by trade I have all the options available to me. I could have went with a two component, hardener activated, paint that would only have a slightly better mar...

I’m sure the paint will look great, sucks that Scott at Harms is having trouble getting parts he does super nice work at a very reasonable price. If there is any questions you might have or pictures I could provide feel free to ask, I’m not on here as much as I used to be so it might take a...
