Well I started working some on the Hemi 5.7L to get it cleaned up and converted to a car LX motor. I started by removing the truck manifolds, accessories and motor mounts. While trying to get the pulley bolt out, I broke it. WTF? Right now I’m at the point of getting a smaller puller...
Well today I made it over to the media blaster’s. He warned me that the fender’s were no good. I was heart broken since I knew the car was practically rust free. The fender’s turned out to be not bad at all. Just has some minor waves in the driver’s side and the passenger has...
Well I’ve been working on Project "Eh" body. Since the last update of setting up the rotisserie, I’ve removed all the suspension, body plugs, clips, etc etc. This was done with the help of Keith Zimmer. Truly one of the car gods. Thanks Keith! Rear suspension: Front suspension and old brake lines: So to complete...
Well here’s the latest update. Not much has happened since the last update due to the fact I up and moved on Jan 26 and my wife and I have been working on getting settled. But things have to get moving if I ever want to see this project completed. First thing was to start...
Haven't worked much on the car but I have been buying items. Here's a factory correct console…. I've also sourced a set of tail light from a gent in Texas. Last but not least is a complete rear suspension. Gone will be the old leaf spring suspension. This is an RMS Street Lynx kit....
Without further ado….. 2005 5.7L 345CI Hemi. This elephant weighs prolly 600-750lbs. Thank to Jim for the help getting her home. I’m hoping to find a 545RFE or something similar for behind this. I’m going to keep it automatic so my Wife can drive it also. Joe    
Well I jumped back on the disassembly of the Duster this weekend. I decided I finally wanted the Volare/Aspen center hump and shifter removed to see what is under it. Here’s me grinding the screws and seam sealer off. I went from this…. To this…. I then decided to remove the white piece of tin....
Well I got a lot more done this weekend. I’m also finally up to date on the pictures. This is how the car is currently sitting… Pictures of the glass out of the car. Front: Rear: So this was my goal this weekend, to get the glass out. After about an hour I had it...
Well the disassembly continues. This time I went to the back of the car and started to remove everything. The gas tank was brand new. At least that’s what I’ve been told. Stock 8 1/4” Rear End. This just won’t do for my project idea’s! This is going to be a larger job. Someone in...
Well I’ve started to disassemble the car down so that I can get it blasted. Front end getting stripped down first. Fenders came off once we found all the nuts. Only surface rust. Woohoo! This concludes part 1. Joe
