the Polara was that way, but someone at some point swapped the drums side to side. So all the LHs were on the wrong side

Back to my theory that 64 was a transitionary, random model year and they just used up what was laying around
That was every year for MOPAR!
Something changed almost every year. I bought 74, 75 and 76 service manuals to figure out my wiring. LOL Even things I know of that changed like bumpers and guards can be a head scratcher when people tell you they know something is original on their car, yet it is not the right one by the month and year of production. "Hey Sam, found this in the stockroom", "Put it on the next one"

Even crazier for me since the car is a marsupial to begin with.
Was true for a lot of cars besides just 1964.
Home safe before midnight. Now going to sleep with the pretty little lady.
I made a HUGE HUGE HUGE mistake back when I was 15. I bought my 78 w200 off my grandfather after pulling it out of sitting in the muck behind the barn for 15 years. My dumbass threw away all the ordering paperwork I’d found in the glove box thinking it wasn’t important...
Including the build sheet.
well come to find out, that truck was originally ordered with a 400. Well it was late 1978 and the plant had ran out of 400s, so they offered my grandfather a big credit with dodge on that truck plus a credit on his next dodge vehicle. So he took it. Copies of all that documentation was later learned to have been in that glove box. Granted he used the credits to buy a 78 New Yorker. But still.

Cool story... yeah I wish the car still had the fender tag never mind a build sheet. I do have a nice folder full of receipts starting from 1998. Everything prior is a mystery
A few years ago a couple real good looking young ladies came up our drive and wanted to talk about God. I chatted them up because they had nice racks. Well they left. A few minutes later I hear. Help. Help me. Wtf? I look across the drive and into the neighbors yard and I see one of the girls. Yelling. So I use a secret side gate into there yard and I see there two big mean dogs have her cornered. I put myself and my pistol between them and I get her out. I jokingly asked her why God did not swoop in and save her. She said he did he sent you......

And because of me the neighbors found out about the secret gate I had put in when I had good friends that lived there. A huge problem started when the punk son started parking his car in our driveway and using that gate. We got it resolved when they arrested him....
Wait , you’re talking water pistol right? California doesn’t allow guns remember haha
There allowed. Like everywhere in the country. Just if your a crook you cannot legally carry one......Wait , you’re talking water pistol right? California doesn’t allow guns remember haha

I did, thanks! But I am looking for the back bar. Old western style. Gotta have a place to hang big hats and holsters, no cattle! Cows are down in lower pasture!

I love goat! We grazed them all summer and grilled them at first frost!
Rebuilt trans!
Yes. We'd drive by in the morning and they'd be setting it up on the fire... drive by in the evening and have them carve some off onto a plate.
Canada had left hand studs too.
Same with my Fargo. Wheel bolts though.

Yo WV64 there is a guy on another thread looking for someone in WV. Something about a 70 hood with scoops in a salvage trailer?

May have to wash the black truck after all. Radar says no substantial rain within 300 miles. The wind portion of this storm is moving in, but the rest is going to be a long while getting here if at all. Derelicts had a fair turn out this morning, many of the usuals. One I don't recall seeing around in the fashion it was presented. A black '59 Impaler with the rear wheel wells filled to capacity with Cragar SSs and fat tires 
little skinnies on the front. I could hear the delightful tinny header sound accompanied by the thump of a lumpy cam shaft . Not too bad for a "fin" car .

Suddenly starting to fall for the tri-fives. Go down the road has 3 of them, all 4 doors and just got to ride in one. The body lines are sexy for sure.
