Stop in for a cup of coffee

I am being hired to go to a friend of a friend's house, he has a 65 more door dart, 273 car automatic, its in a shed about 40 miles to the west and wants me to check over everything and see if I think it will start and drive on a trailer, it was in a will along with 4 to 5 other cars his great uncle had.. the Dart was running and driving in 2020. I have the old dizzy I replaced with a dizzy Hoppy set up for me and all the ignition parts, 2 gallons of fuel, trouble light, cord, 4 quarts of trans fluid, 4 new tires on my old 13 inch sbp rims, ignition switch, floor jack and stands and back support belt... loaded and ready in my truck.. I need to stop and buy 4 quarts of rotella 30wt.. the guy is an ex ray tec.. Hopefully see more mopars out there or at least something I like and do some trading :thumbsup:

160 acures (ok, so I can't spell) no one will be there so the 9mm and holster will be strapped on. Key to the gate will be in my mail box at 1pm today.
Lets get this day started!! I guess I am just one of very few old mopar men near by.
Well, got a phone call saying the Key will be dropped off at 5pm this morning a bit after I posted this , well shhhhugar.. :BangHead:
So I kept my feet going and installed my alternator and sealed up water system bolts one at a time, I installed water pump and chain cover area few days ago so that's all done, grill put back on almost, just need the hood latch brace and set hood latch in place..

Sun is shining :thumbsup: but !! I better stay at this while my ambitious attitude is in drive ..

Hopefully everyone is enjoying there day at work or at home today as much as toolman is enjoying his new 64 Beuity B Body around friends, let see those pictures @toolmanmike

I have had that plate on for 20 years, think it's time to hang it on the wall and have another made, not sure what yet but it will have Plymouth on it, or Memike 66.

I had a local shop do the lace treatment on my hood. The biggest issue they had was getting it to stay put while spraying. Very carefully with low pressure. And having enough lace without wrinkles or mistakes. The original lace was cheap on Amazon. It would have been bad!

Happy birthday Eric.
I've seen your paint job up close and it looks good.
