Hey man! Anything new to report?

I'm actually building another car right now, there's a post on it. I bought back my very first car ( I first bought it at age 14 and kept it 17 years...... 20 years later it's back)

.... i was referencing the Z bar on the Cuda when I was swapping the Duster to a manual and noticed the mount was wasted..... so I put one in this morning.

This is cool I just cleaned up and checked the original 323 Suregrip that I pulled from the Cuda about 23 years ago.
The markings are still on it.
I also checked it and it held torque.
It has minimal backlash, and the gears look great.
I just need to replace the pinion seal If I ever want to use it.
I plan to find a creative way to remove the rust, ie Evaporust.
