Ahhh... I remember those filters. They came out in the late 80's and looked so cool. I had one on a 1971 RS Camaro torched that one quickly.
Whats the DUMBEST thing you've done to your Mopar?

In hindsight, I think the dumbest thing I did was to drill hole in the fender to install a key cylinder for an anti theft siren. That said, I DID live in Chicago at the time (1969) and never could have imagined what the car could some day be worth.

Funny you should ask!
Yesterday I was fixing two small dents. Got the dents out the best that I could, hit the area with a small grinder to rough it up. Applied some body puddy, let it cure and sanded it off. Looks good! Just wanted to skim coat it with a little glazing puddy. Applied a thin coat and waited for it to cure.
Well it was getting late, kind of cool in the shop and it was taking forever to cure. I'll just go in and sand it off in the morning. Went out to the shop this morning, turned on the heat, checked the glazing and it still wasn't cured. So I got out the heat gun and applied some heat to the areas. It helped some but still not dry enough to sand.
Then my brother calls me, he's a body man by trade and I tell him what happened thinking maybe I got a bad batch. He asked me if I used any hardener in it.
Can you say "Senior Moment" ???
