    Looks Sweet! Isn't that the one that you got off of Cindy, last summer? If I remember correctly, Cindy had pretty well redone all the mechanials on that car. Should be a great car now. The Omni looks nice also.

    Re: painted my r/t

    yea this is the car i got off cindy in oct. Thanks for all the comments. I plan on pulling the engine here in a month or so to go through it. The clutch is shot and it leaks every fluid that the car holds. head gasket is about blown out also. so i plan on just cleaning it up adding a front mount and maybe some alky injection. I plan on ordering a trim cal for the omni and spirit.

    anyway thanks for the comments, keep em coming.

    It's what you do with what you've got that makes the magic I'm thinking you do some color sanding after your paint jobs I've painted a few mototrcycles in my garage and even after the whole place is blown out and wet down, the little bits of fuzzys still find their way onto the painted parts Not brave enogh to do a whole car yet...

    Re: painted my r/t

    sniffle, sniffle ......The car looks great, I'm so happy it went to a good home. I loved that car......but too many cars and not enough driver's...... it needed a new home.

    I didn't do all the mechanicals. The original motor busted a rod then cracked the block. I replaced it with a stock motor and trans that Cliff Ramsdell had freshened up. We then drove the car sparingly, like to run shop errands etc...It wasn't pristine when I sold it to Jeff, but I have seen the work and devotion both he and his brother put into their TD's so I was happy to sell it to him. I knew that he would bring it back to it's former glory.
    Keep up the good work!!!!
    later,
    Cindy
