Got rid of another squeak. Glove box was a touch loose.

Just about all squeaks gone now.  :twothumbsup:

That brown 74 with the white top looks exactly like my friends car except he had a black interior. I think he total and wreck his back around 1980. The 340 screams and the car really moves when the nitrous is turned on.

I finally got around to looking at, my new door panels that I got from Roseville Moparts late last week.  They will look amazing next to my new Legendary seat covers. Great price $450 Us plus shipping brokerage and taxes and exchange rate and you get $919 Can deliver to your door. I cant wait for the rear panel or seat backs to arrive.

I got a set from Roseville as well. Several years ago. They are nice.

I spent 3 hours, if you can believe that, cleaning,compounding, spray detailing the wheels and blackening the tires. Wow! On the bright side, the car looks good and the boys even took it over to Kitchener to pick up their wedding suits. They said they got lots of thumbs-ups and that's heartening after all that work. I thought I'd gotten a local replacement for the incorrect rear bumper Tamraz sent me, but it was a piece of poo-poo right out of the AMD box and buddy won't have a replacement for 3-4 weeks. As for Tamraz, they basically said I was on my own, but they'd have "accounting" look up my order and they'd call me the next day to discuss it. That was last week and when I call, they don't answer or return messages. Truly a PITA as I try to finalize the car.  :thumbdown:

Was getting into my car in a parking lot yesterday. I heard a question that I used to get ALL THE TIME..'is that a Charger?'

Thanks!  It's a 73 actually but its nearly impossible to tell the difference! 

The 340 4 speed is a blast to drive.  Its in the process of being converted back to all white interior as it came from the factory.  Someone put on black door panels and painted the original headliner earlier in her day.

Took his and hers out to a local show this weekend.  Other than some complaints from my wife over manual drum brakes and getting caught in a rain storm it was a fun little excursion!
Nice cars! Which one do you enjoy driving the most?

:thinking: That's a great question.  Lately its the rag top as it is the newest for us and a 70 convert is just tough to beat.  It is such a nice pooch of a car but the rally is more "fun"  :burnout:

I think a lot depends on the mood but the convertible always brings a smile to my face.

Yeah I can see it being a tough choice -- a convertible vs a 4-speed. Imagine if the convertible had a 4-speed! I bet the 340 Rallye handles a little better than the 70 vert?

I picked this up from the media blasters today and dropped it off at the body shop

Your dolly attaches to the front leaf spring mounts and the trans crossmember location?

Took it for a ride along the St. Clair River, U.S., with neighboring Canada in the background.
