To go along with my new crap welding skills from above comes the paint lesson. Lets see....turn up the fluid volume, down air pressure, decrease gun distance and slow travel speed, that should do it.

The 66 only, Hemi only electrical bracket and the Sun Transformer. The tach was added one week after the car was picked up. Neat to see one of those again too.

Real rare item. Usually got tossed. The bolt shim for the lower pulley. First one I have seen in years. Bob said he has not seen one forever either.

The red X on the trans. I did a 1700 mile 66 Hemi trans that had this same marking. I assume it stands for Hemi/HD trans?

To me the cars are cool but the real deal with a car like this is the experiences that were had together with the owner and some of the relics of good times that show up. Here is a note to the dealer telling them all is OK with the car except they still need to remove the Hemi plaques from the fender and the 426 hood ornament too.

Here is one a few drive in future films hand outs from 1973. While most of the films were forgettable Its A Mad, Mad, Mad World is not.

That is it for now. I have more but need to go back as my battery quit on me. Thanks to Bob for his hospitality and Jim for being kind enough to let me scour over his car. And a shout out for Grant and Sherry for being patient as I/we drove through some of the worse snow conditions I have seen in years. Wont do that again for a while.

This is a little off topic, but I was watching "The Defenders" last night. Jerry O'Connell drives a '66 Satellite convertible. They showed a shot of the right side, and down low on the fender was a 426 HEMI emblem. Anyone else notice this? Bob
I wonder is it the same car David Boreanaz drove in ANGEL with a few changes like the grille and trim? Quote:
Q: What kind of car does Angel [David Boreanaz] drive? A: A 1967 Plymouth Belvedere GTX Convertible. Only 2,026 of Angel's car were made. A special car for a special vampire! Here are a few more stats:
* Production: 2D Coupe: 17,914. 2D Convertible: 2,026. * Engines: 426 Hemi V8 [Email]425bhp@5000rpm[/Email], [Email]490lb-ft@4000rpm.[/Email] 440 V8 [Email]375bhp@4600rpm[/Email], [Email]480lb-ft@3200rpm.[/Email] * Performance: 426/425bhp: 1/4 mile in low 13s. 440/375bhp: 0-60 in 6.6 sec, 1/4 mile in 15.2 sec @ 97mph
definitely not the car from tommy boy.
for what is the good life if not doing things thoughtfully?

Does that look like an X in that paint area? Im working on a car very much like yours. Did you find a orange/red paint inspection on the nner fender? Quote:
