Nice work! Sand blasting does suck….. Hence why you have that blaster now and not me! I rate it right up there with painting – I love the finished product, but I hate the process of getting there…
Hey Tom, M has to work Saturday so we won’t be going up. Plus I’m a$$ deep in a kitchen reno… Another time.
Took the old Connie drag racing and did 12.5’s for the quarter mile.
First time was the Saturday and blew an ignition coil when she slipped from 3rd gear back to 2nd at 11,000 RPM.
Replaced the plugs and coils and went out again. Pulled off 12.5’s again and didn’t blow anything up this time (good thing because I had to ride home!).

Got the garage ceiling insulated Sunday. Great Northern quoted me $800 to do it with a timing of ~4 weeks.
I picked up 6 bags of Pink blow in and 2 bundles of vents. With equipment rental, it cost me $518 and took me 1.5 hours. Good cost savings!Next step will be to buy a gas heater and have a gas line run to the garage.
I also just received my HEI distributor for the Dodge. That should allow me to get some higher RPMs before needing to change gears.
Welcome @Dieseldude!
Bought it brand new in August 2008.
It has about 218,000 Kim’s on it. Always use synthetic oil.
2.7L IL4 cylinder.
BFG KO2 285/75R16 tires with same size spare.
I have rock sliders for it as well. I wanted to keep the winch, but will let it go with the truck for full asking price.
