Got one good stabilizer built from three of the bent ones. Works like new too!

Were're going to be clearing the POs stuff out of it tis weekend. After that I'm just waiting on the new tires and wheels to arrive before I can tow it home.

Hey, I have a 440 in my old 75 dodge truck. Looking for something like that to put it in as well... all though that 3 ton truck will pull just about anything...

That's not a 440 anymore. It's been bored and stroked out to a 511 with about 675hp and 700ft/lbs.
The car is a 72 Dodge Challenger that I'd been slowly turning into a custom Pro-Touring car.
Due to my recent back surgery I've restructured my priorities and am going to be selling the car and engine. I'm going to be putting those funds back into starting my own buisness. I'm trying to get it all set up before I retire from the Navy in September. This 73 Soveriegn is going to be my workshop so I'm going to be working on it at a fairly quick pace (as my health will allow).
That would be something to see! Maybe you could get those guys who do that program about moving big things like the Cape Hatteras lighthouse to film it.

I found this quote rather fun for me because our moving company was one of three involved in the move of the Cape Hatteras lighthouse. And they sure did a lot of filming...

I thought I'd just give a short update to this post. Well, it's off and running, relatively speaking of course. I was able to get it out from under the house and tow it home this past Sunday. All this week I've been gutting it in preperation to replace the floor (shell on). It's just an aluminum tent at this point.
Hope you aren't replacing all of the floor. Because the shell sits on the floor's edge. That is what holds up the shell.
Otherwise it a shell game!
Put thoses results in the floor repair forum.

I know this one was built with the UC type extruded channel. I was planning on piecing the floor together in large sections, using plywood ledges screwed and glued to the floor joints from below.
