Updating the Super Street Mopar

No, just this. Thank you for checking it out and your kind compliments.
I did do two torsion bar removal vids, which are on Youtube, though. I do have a build thread here on the forum also for my 67 wagon. When I'm working on the cars, I take photos[ when I remember to do so, didn't yesterday] as I'm plugging away. Doing the constant vid's sucks up more time. I'd rather just wrench, build, fab, weld, get clock time in on my money projects etc with my Pandora going on in the background. The Thing, Rat Rod and Challenger have been my money projects, other than a couple of welding jobs. When the 72 is done, I have a gent with a really nice 64 Plymouth that needs some work. The Thing needs some more work plus the owner has a 50 Hudson for me to do suspension swaps on. All of these money projects have been giving me funds to spend on the wagon, which needs more work. Have already done the wheels, tires, complete suspension redo/upgrade, complete steering redo/upgrade, brake upgrade, axle bearings. I'm slowly getting pieces for a fresh 440. Block is machined, new components for the reciprocating assembly plus balanced. Need to get enough goodies to assemble the short block, cam is already ordered, get a pair of Eddy E-street heads and other items to complete it. When the engine/trans is out, I'm going to get a fresh trans done[ my unit works, but great time to do it] and order up a complete TTI system for it. While its out with the K-frame etc, I want to fit up the TTI headers ahead of time so after the break in period[ on the Hedman's], I'll do an exhaust upgrade front to back. Last items on the wagon list will be to pull the seats for a redo, pull the carpet out for replacement, repair a hole in the floor, put some new belts in with shoulder harness's, slap it back together. After all thats done, as it's my daily driver, I'm going to gather up supplies to get back onto the 65.
 
Have some updates. I've been laid up with left knee and calf issues for a month. I can finally get some work done, so I've been working on the 72 for about a week now. Steering column is in, electrical is hooked back up, wheels/tires for the front are on and sitting on my greased plates[ helps with the suspension/steering settling]. I'm working on the back end currently. Springs and shocks are in. I'm getting the sway bar mounting squared away before I weld the bar mounts to the diff housing. The link to rail mounting is getting figured out so those too can get welded. I prefer not to use the u-bolts to hold the brackets to the diff as, to me, they can move around. Plus the custom stainless hard lines would not like the interference. To get the links attached to the rails, my neighbor lopped off some portions of universal shock studs. Cut the red off, saved the green. Those will get welded to some .125 plate, 3" sqaure. Those in turn get welded to the rails. While I had a moment yesterday. I made some mount brackets to put the electric fans, from BeCool[ am reusing those], onto the US Radiator brass/copper unit that replaces the BeCool unit which was leaking.
