Well, it looks like I am the exception so far. I would probably have gotten rid of most of the parts that I have if it weren't so much trouble to do so. I don't have any immediate plans to sell the Cuda, but my son isn't that interested in it and I can see the day coming where I just don't want to work on it anymore. Driving it is still a joy, but I do not look forward to working on it like I once did. I am one major break down away from Mopar retirement.

More often than not most that end up upside down do so by paying others to do any and sometimes everything...

My 70 Satellite was bought with a 68 Coronet 440 H/T as a package deal on both cars for $2,000 in 2007.

Sold the Coronet for $2,000 and kept the Satellite.

Sold the extra parts that came with it for another 800.00 and I had a car and 800.00 cash to start building it...

Roughly $16,000 and 3 years later I had a running driving car that has had over 20,000 miles put on it and supplied 10 summers of fun...

Most of the initial 16K came from buying and stripping about 12 cars and selling those parts...

The Dart was nearly the same as 2 cars were bought...one fixed and 1 parted out...

Another parts car supplied the V8 K frame and disc brakes while also donating the dash pad and a ton of bolt on parts...

I already had a lot of the parts needed for it and the total cost after the paintwork was less than 15K...

There has been 4 summers of fun thus far with it along with a couple trips to the track...

I'm not upside down on either one if they were to be sold tomorrow...

Before and afters of each sitting in front of my "Junk Yard"...

Get any free samples? I still have 1 Griner brake under the bench. I should liquidate some of this stuff. Good unit for sure!

I will be leaving very early Monday morning heading down to Charlotte with two cars for Bill. It looks like I will have a little room in the box on the way down and still empty returning home to CT with the 27' box truck and an open trailer.

Not surprised yer battery shopping already - those craftsman branded batteries are just plain crap. A few years back I bought a 19.2v leaf blower and a 19.2v hedge trimmer. Both came with a battery and one of them came with a charger. Both the batteries were useless in under 6 months. Surfed the bay, found some unbranded chinese crap for cheap enough to roll the dice and several years later it's still going strong.

What happened to Orig poster? I thought he was "thinking about" switching to a B1?

In many areas people are confined to one provider of true HIGH SPEED internet service. I have Spectrum internet only. Its not cheap at $70 per month but it always works and never buffers. I watch TV strictly thru Netflix HULU and a slew of free internet channels. Get my local news via TV antenna, online and old fashioned radio. Everything you watch currently can be had over the internet cheaper via a ROKU or Fire Stick plug in devices. Then there are no more TV boxes and 19 minutes of commercials per 60 minute show.

If I understand the ownership structure correctly, Charlie is co-owner with the original Hipster guy. I have no idea who posts on YB, though.

One of the comments during our conversation was about another trans shop about an hour away from me whose name also starts with "AT...". My wife's cuz said they basically ripped off one of ATD's designs, made some minor/insignificant change and advertised it as their own innovation. I'm guessing they don't send each other Christmas cards.

I got out all the bubbles bench bleeding the new master cylinder.
Just want to pop out the old one and put in the new one without having to start bleeding the drums.
Can it just work with just the bench bleed?

If you're ends can be removed, pull them and check thread size and direction. Measure the stud diameter at the big and small ends and the distance between them. Also need length from center of stud to end of the threaded end.

Older Moog catalogs had dimensions listed, they might have them on their website too.

Do you have any updated pics of this?

Also is that the ZF/cherry sensor?

I run into those caps, seems after a couple of winters the salt gets under the stainless and the corrosion swells them. I just split the cover and use an 18mm 6 point. Each car has a cheap breaker bar with both sockets.
