What city are you from? I moved from Logan, ut about a year and a half ago. I was going to buy the car you used for parts from JC auto, but someone (you) beat me to it I guess.

I finally scored the engine for this car!I have been looking for almost a year these damn new hemi's sure bring a premium around here.This beauty is from a 2004 Durango paid a little more than I wanted at a $1000 but I cannot find one near here for anything close with these miles.So I pulled the trigger,I pulled everything I could I took the entire wiring harness computer ac lines everthing pretty excited to be working on this car again!

As I posted above at the rate I'm going it going to be forever but one big step down.

Well after a long break it's time to finish this car. I got burned out on cars and needed to do other things but I love this car and it needs to be done. So I had Stephan Fournier do my wiper motor with some custom touches looks sweet.

Got a little more done. Took the nasty stock headlight buckets and soaked them in evaporust, then hit with 0000 steel wool looks pretty good also got trim rings polished. Moving forward is good.

Got a little more done headlight buckets are in, I must say the adjusters were a royal pain to install but looks good. Also went with hydroboost after installing in my Challenger last year I'll never have another old car without it. Got the firewall brake line in as well.

Did you use the same headlight buckets? I discovered an issue with mine when putting the headlights in, because I couldn't get some to line up right (the flutes in the glass). I mixed up a few because I used a different front fender on the car, and the buckets got mixed up. Took me a while to figure out the orientation when putting it all back together, and apart, and back together, and apart, and back together again!

yes they are the ones that came with these fenders. I did not know they were side specific or hi-lo specific until I went to install them. But only had to install once

Since this car now is fuel injected I decided to use a Tanks inc. tank. Pretty nice quality matches the factory tank pretty well, except obviously the recess for the pump and sender. These have internal baffles and are not much more than a factory replacement tank.

Decided long ago this car was getting a/c. Went with a classic auto air kit. Had to modify the firewall pad a little but install was pretty straightforward. Now I need to get the dash finished.

I went back and forth trying to decide to paint the dash or not. I decided to have it powder coated. It turned out sweet. Took them a bunch of photos of stock dashes they got the sheen spot on even got "some" oe style texture.
