Let's see.... It's in Arizona so if they would list it as a one owner, one of one, and a barn find then it would be worth $100K right? Seems to me that if all the correct buzz words are in the ad the car automatically becomes priceless. ;)

Good catch! The negatives have been on vehicles sold. Unless I was local I don't think I would gamble on it.

The grill looks like aluminum soffit vents from Home Depot. That makes it a "custom" job.

Okay :) I use a family run place in Austin, Texas which is near me. It's called Cen-Tex Plating.

In my experience doing a rechrome has been better. The original bumpers seem thicker and the chrome shop I use is phenomenal and cheaper than an after market. They straighten and repair anything that needs to be done, remove all dings and dents, even rechrome the bolts. They strip everything...

Rodzilla- "If you drink beer or smoke cigarettes you can afford to buy a membership, Joey isn't getting rich off this place." EXACTLY!!!! My gosh it costs about a dime a day. Drink one less soda a week and you cover the cost. This web site costs money to maintain. I have a non-profit and...

Obviously his parts are as "special" as he is. :)

I never could get them very tender or to taste right. But seriously, The very best way to protect headers is to have them ceramic coated- inside and out. That being said I've had very good results using the VHT rattle cans.

I agree! Seems everything is total junk when they are purchasing and 100% Unobtainium when selling. Oh well, may be someone out there that doesn't know any better.

You're welcome. That's what we are here for!

What I have done in the past is to go on ebay and find a similar sized car in the vicinity of where you think you might purchase one and they have an automatic quote system on the listings. It will have 3-4 different companies and you enter your destination zip code. It will give you a fairly...

I appreciate the input guys!

Just bought a package of 100 of the push type retainers for the 1/2" hood hinge pins. If anybody else is needing any just let me know and I'll mail you four of them. It will be end of next week before I receive them.

FOUND IT!!!! It's called a push nut. Whew!

LOL! If I ever figure it out I'll post it here. :)

Wait a minute....... it's NOT okay to wipe sideways?????

I need to locate the fastener that holds the hood hinge onto the pins. I have no idea what they are called so can't even do a search for them. The pic is of the pin I'm talking about. Thanks in advance!

LOL. I know the feeling, when I got my first TIG machine I was welding things I had absolutely no use for at all. But it sure was fun. I especially enjoy the "no spatter" factor. Keep it up, look forward to seeing your oil pan.

Looks great! Isn't DIY a blast? :)

I've found that patience is the key. And timing- I've bought a few things from guys on here that were real bargains just because I happened to be on the site when the item was first posted. I recently bought a 71 Swinger as a donor car for my 71 Demon build. I could not find a front bench...

From the thread it seems that 4mulaSvaliant is MIA. No activity since April and not responding to the thread he started. Wish he would show back up! :)

Is 15 bucks high for a used distributor?

I've been pleased with JustMopar. Seems like a family run business and the owner is very knowledgeable. I'm doing my first Mopar build and he had every single peace of rubber, seals, gaskets, and so forth that I needed in stock. If nothing else you can use it as a price comparison.

Texas Hill Country. Not many Mopar guys that I've come across around here, yet. Still hoping because I need all the help I can get!

Very nice!!! Wish I could find those in my area.

I'm just hoping it runs as good as it looks. ;)

Thanks! This is my first Mopar and I picked up the car really cheap so I decided to splurge a little. :)

Well I've been waiting on parts and tearing down the 71 Demon and 451 Stroker and today I finally got around to putting some stuff back together and adding some new things as well...... First pic is before removing anything.

Seems like a great foundation to transform it into something really nice. Lots of room to play with- paint color, hood, etc. Just depends on how high it goes on price. Nice cruiser for sure.
