Let's try that again...
That's last years.....what about this year?
Those look familiar, Dave. And good!
Hey, I looked through last years calendar just this morning. They are lots of fun. A local Mopar friend usually puts one together for us locals. I got my 66 and engine on next years PSC calender. I'm batting 1000. lol
If you ever decide to do a-bodies in the rough theme calendar, i’m in...
All seriousness aside, this year’s calendar looked great.i’m in for the next one. As long as it’s not paid for through paypal.

My dart is rough,dont think a junkyard dog would sleep in it.
The barracuda is straight,and no rust to fix. But no paint.
Coffee is over. Time to torque wheels.

Dave finished Chris's Polara and painted it several colors - all before Chris pulled it out of the dirt. LOL
Not sure if I should laugh or cry
Looks good with the new wheels on it.

Just the facts, ma'am
yea. what he said.
Well actually, since it will be running on battery alone, it will be 12.5 volts drifting downward with time. Make sure the alternator output isn't touching anything or hanging loose. Better yet- disconnect the vr wire, and then it can't generate anything.
For power to the starter, energirize the the starter relay. Use a screw driver just like any time you remote start.
gosh I stopped in for cofee and teched!

Very nice Dave. Creative and well done.
Power Wagon! I was playing in the mud with it today! I love that old truck

Nice. But my charger is still older.

You should send me the pic of your car that's in your avatar for the calendar.
That's actually was my next question. Simply disconnect the alternator?

Yep, just pull the field wire. Main output can stay connected or make sure it is isolated if you take it off. It will be powered from the battery.

Just the facts, ma'am
I *think* the answer is yes. Take a look at mid to late 60s B-bodies with /6.
Thanks, and great meeting you at Daves the other day. Nice Cuda.
Take a look at the late 60's early 70's small (D100) trucks too...not sure about the width

What he said.
The alternator works by spinning an electromagnetic. No power to the spinning electromagnetic, no power out.
An alternator with one field wire, the field wire and the voltage regulator are feeding that spinning electromagnetic. Disconnect the field wire and no power in.
If your alternator has two field wires, one is feeding and one is grounding through the voltage regulator. On those, unplug the VR, the circuit is open - no power wil go through the field.
