It’s a specialty socket, PST sells one, Mancini also but they’re overpriced is you ask me. I bought this one from summit and have no issues with it

Thank you. I have seen them for sale. I am hoping some local Mopar guy around me has one. Out of curiosity.. would a large crescent wrench work??

You could try, some have had luck. No way mine would’ve came out with a crescent wrench.

I have heard that they can be tough to start.

More progress is being made. Front suspension is done minus the shocks. Putting the firewall and wiring back together. Hopefully I will be dropping the motor and transmission back in real soon!

Nice project!
Damn, in 1 month the front end and engine are already done.
You will be bored when you finish the car in 4 months from now.
What color is that?

The motor and transmission are now back in. Slid in real well. It's hard to find help at 4 a.m. so it was a one man operation. I'm now working on the rear end. One leaf spring is painted. Soon it will be back on four wheels!!
nice color, my son in law used a similar mix i think minus the pearl, still was a head turner. good work, making some fast progress.

Huge day in my book!! I have been looking forward to this day yet I was very nervous. Fired up on the first crank!! Cam is broke in and all is great. Instrument cluster is painted all lights replaced with LEDs and all quages tested. time to get the fenders on and paint.

Car looks great! Can't believe it's come soo far in such little time.
Nice progress! It's always nice when parts start going back on the car, and getting the engine in and running is a huge step. Congrats!

Very cool build! You're working at light speed ... and by the looks of it, the car will easily keep up with you. Your enthusiasm and excitement show through! Can't wait to see how it turns out.

Thank you all. I am loving the build. I am addicted (my wife says obsessed). The learning, then seeing it come together correctly is satisfying. I appreciate the help that I have received from this forum. I've felt a little over my head a few times. These cars are a huge project and I have respect for all who are in the process or have completed one. I have one last hiccup before paint. My oil pressure light is not cooperating. It has me stumped and ready to go with a mechanical guage.

Good call on the mechanical oil gauge. Those don't lie unlike electronics.
