Well I finally got my old girl out for a spin!

Yeah I know is August...still losts of time to put some miles on.  ::)
Car worked great, nice cool day never got over 210 while cruising.

Best improvment over the winter, you know other than the new bumper...installed new rear shocks. Nothing fancy just new monroe's. What a differnece.  I thought the readsprings were just harsh, turns out the 25 year old shocks that were on it were bad!!! Who knew!

Here a few pics of my two cars just for the hell of it!

1974 Cuda. 360 / A500 OD.  Yes its pink, no its not my wife's car!  Yes I drive it.

Yeah. Looked like rain all afternoon but started to move out after we talked, had some dinner and pulled her out.

Nice to see 'er out Jas! I've been at the beach for 2 weeks and can't get my old clunker out of the garage due to excavation, so I hope you guys are keeping the Mopar presence alive and well!  :cheers:

Ya know, Jason - this is totally unrelated to your post, but I still have that 318/907 kickdown linkage you essentially gave me years ago after the post office lost it for like, 3 months...   :))

Every time I see ya post, I remember that, and to this day I still consider you to be a pretty awesome, stand-up guy.  :)

Glad to see the 'Cuda up and rollin' about!!  Enjoy the rest of the year as best you can!

I know that must have felt good driving down the road in that beauty!  I bet it put a smile on your face! :D
