Ahhh it's a kit car, very cool, I love the Dodge and it gives me a bad case of the "I Wants"
Matter of fact, I was just looking at a used Dodge for sale, gives me a great idea!!

I'm not much of a turn by turn project posting guy,,, I'm more of a milepost by milepost guy.
So, I think this is a major milepost.

How would the racers say it,,, The lump and the bag are in the box?
nothing is hooked up yet, but this was a big day for me!!!
Man, that was always my 2nd favorite milestone - stabbing the Engine and Transmission. It's probably the most rewarding one aside from firing it up the first time!

It doesn't look like it should take twelve hours to go from the last photo to this one,,,

but,, all the engine wiring, most of the coolant hoses, most of air intake, axles, and shifter are now connected!
What's left? AC hoses, PS hoses, lower coolant hoses, drive shaft, brake calipers, then radiator support assy., front bumper grill assy , headlights, fill with fluids and hope I connected every thing correctly!
