Yeah Steve, now you're talking!

I don't know what, if any, the differences are between old and new Cragars.

What size tires are those on your old 4.5" Cragars?

No, no, no, Bob!

I said he works for "RS" (Rita Schultz ), not the "IRS"

And in the typical "if you give a mouse a cookie" theory, I then decided to have the engine compartment reshot which lead to the block sanding of the entire car for a new coat of E5 red in original style single stage paint. Right now the car is at PRC restorations (the same guy, Rich who did the body on my Z11). Maybe he can post a photo of how it looks at the moment. Here's the motor up on blocks...

Greeeeaaaaattttt, so Rich is painting your car now instead of mine! You Hemi guys just can't stand to be last! Actually, I thought the car looked pretty sweet when I saw it at the shop Steve so I'm surprised you wanted it repainted.

I had to pull the engine out anyway for the maintenance. And the paint was so thin in spots I could see the primer showing through! I figured it was now or never. It should be out in 2 to 3 weeks because it has to be at the Carlisle Mopar show in July...or else.

Sorry it took so long for the update. Rich and his crew at PRC had the paint done in time for me to assemble the whole monster in one weekend of thrashing, just in time for the Mopars @ Carlisle show in July. Here's the finished project. I decided to add the hood blackouts that I left off 17 years ago. At the time I couldn't decide if it was a bit too gaudy, but what the heck, it's a Mopar: They're all too gaudy anyway!

It was great to finally meet you Steve. We have all enjoyed reading about this and your other cars and it was a pleasure to finally put a face with a name. I glanced over at you several times during the show and you always had a smile on your face and certainly appeared to be loving the show. It was in fact a great time!
