Pissed off my local Ford dealership owner, much to my delight! He wasn't too happy that 90% of his staff came out to look over my car. He just walked past and kept going, knowing who I am and the fact that he's going to be buying me a new F150 with all the '18 x 5.0's eating oil and needing engines!

Bought a front, disc brake kit, from Doctor Diff,,,can't wait!
 
So not my Mopar ! But a Mopar well two!
So I started my day with baby sitting the baby ! Then I got released from duty kinda late 4:00 I called a guy that's been asking for help on his 72 duster ,I replaced all the fuel and vaper lines from tank to pump !
So I was done getting ready to pull charger back in garage to do some work on it when I noticed guy down street trying to fix his 05 ram he had a shovel stuck into the ground with some string on it and he tied it around the water pump pully so it would stay still while he took the fan clutch off !
Well I decided it wasn't funny anymore and told him to just bring it in ! So I r&r his water pump for him free of charge as he was broke! But !!!!! His father in-law owns a custom body/paint shop near here and he showed me some work ! Nice stuff! Anyways he said he would hook it up ! So good deeds are worth while some times !!!!
 
Tried some spray on paint stripper on my right door today.

Paint coming off one layer at a time. It's so hot I think it dries up before it can do its job.
 
I ended up just sanding the remaining paint off with a DA.

To slow down drying, try putting on a sheet of plastic over the coat of stripper. It will stay wet longer and let the chemicals penetrate deeper. Stripping is safer than sanding if the old paint is lead based.
 
Well that 72 duster from my car club struck again today ! Driver's wheel locked up on him. So I had to deal with that!

But I had enough time to get my charger hung on the rotisserie the rest of the way and pull the rear end out and started pulling the k frame!
 
A buddy's shop is full so we had to move his race car to a different garage to store it temporarily.

I installed a new muffler n tailpipe on the Dakota yesterday.
Then I put the dead five month old battery from my car in the truck so I could take it in for replacement.
Left for work this morning and the truck wipers quit.
Luckily I was close to home and went back to wait out the rain. Rain stopped went to the dealer and got a free replacement battery and installed it. Found one of the wiper arm bushings broken and luckily I had one left over from the last repair.
Now....what happens next?
 
Well my exhaust was never the best. It hung too low and it was just a little cobbled up sooooo its at the muffler shop getting all new. Figured I would let the people who do this for a living do it right!
So as far as what I did. I drove it to the muffler shop!
 
Damn, This **** ain't easy !
Easy by Slow ! Ya right !

Paid for exhaust then got to listen to the sweet sound of a Mopar big block. Well worth the money. Now I have 2 stainless magnaflow mufflers to sell
 
Done some window tinting yesterday. 35 percent so not super dark but still noticeable. I like how it turned out.
