Why the muffler swap? I have the Super Turbos but am (was?) considering the Ultra Flos...

The Ultra Flos are way louder than the Super Turbos on my 3" exhaust. They are a straight through muffler and about 4-6" shorter than the STs.

I'll make you a good deal on the UFs, if you really want to try them out. FYI, they are 3 inch custom made to fit TTI exhaust.

Replaced the ragged old glove box liner with a REM unit. Fit perfect. And even a new glove box light!

Easy peasy when you know what you're doing.





Wish I knew what I was doing. All and all only an hour, and a few band-aids.

Got any tips for putting one back in? I’d like to have a functional glove box.

And my wife's 70 Challenger convertible 383 car into the lift bay , to finish up the welding, I am hoping to get it in fresh plum crazy purple paint in the spring.

Went for a long overdue saturday night cruise for about an hour around town.

The new Hughes rocker setup is a huge improvement, car runs better. Crisper and more even with more bottom end power. The broken rocker was almost a blessing in disguise (and thankfully not catastrophic). Definitely worth the time and cost.
 
My girl and I drove to Oklahoma to pick up a parts car for my upcoming restoration. Met an awesome Mopar dude in the process, talked cars, looked around his property and had an awesome road trip at the same time. A good time had by all.

I drove it!
Went to the last local monthly cruise in for a local car club, about 15 minutes away. Although we are members of a large membership MOPAR only club, BEMA (BigEasyMoparAssociation) the BEMA monthly cruise in/show is over an hour away. I may go to the monthly BEMA show once or twice a season, and the 2 big shows as well.
My wife and I joined another local open car club, and we also joined a "local" 64-72 GM A-body club. My wife has a beautiful, bad *** 65 GTO 421 Tripower that is about to have the TKO600 5 speed replace the Muncie 4 speed.
 
Replaced the 40 year old windows in my garage yesterday. Put up 4' x 4' insulated vinyl clad screened sliders.

Nothing major, really. Went to a regional gun show, took a Walther PPS M2
to trade, brought back a new Sig P365. :)
 
A couple better pictures of the flying Vee code Charger and the wife's 70 Challenger convertible. Because of that jealous bastard RC,I left my beautiful mug out of it this time!

With the new windows it was warm in there with out the heat on. Spent the entire day rearranging and building shelves. I'll get some snaps when I'm done..I am also tossing out boo koo ****. Tons of crap I just don't need, junk mostly. Trying to get everything off the floor that I can and remove stuff from the walls around the Coronet. Putting stuff in the front of the garage out of the way so I can have room to paint.
 
I installed tubular upper control arms and finished the alignment today. The camber I can just about get to negative, ive got loads of castor and about 1/8th inch toe in. Ive installed a good front sway bar and the car has a Feel Firm steering box. The suspension is all new.
Took it out for a test ride and im very very happy. The car handles great! The wheel recovers in a turn perfectly, zero tire squeal.
It really handles and rides nice. The steering wheel was about 1/8 turn off, so im correcting that tomorrow and doing the toe again....
Who says these cars dont handle nice!
