Hello wonderful people well it has been a few months since the last up-date. Sometimes this thing called life gets in the way and then there is this dirty word called money...there is never enough of it!
Yesterday morning armed with some money from a good friend and a helping hand Steve took the Dodge out for a ride not before taking it to work first to give it a going over.
Then a long trip from Swindon to the depths of Bedfordshire to collect the trailer and dragster.
It was parked up over night ready for the mornings work, Steve pulled the trailer to the front of his house and got the car out. just for peace of mind and to heat up the oils before draining of course, Steve started her up just a quick squirt in the injector and away she went and my god that engine sounds so dam good.

So now it is being stripped down to just the chassis so its engine out gearbox out axle out etc, then the chassis is going down the road to our friend John O´Sullivan Mr. Mopar to be checked for any weak or broken welds and to check that the car is straight and that there are no bent tubes anywhere. depending on what is found will determine what we do with it ..front half it repair it or replace!!!
Steve is working hard to get the car down to its skeleton ready for transport.
Engine and gearbox out
Engine and box nice and warm inside
Packed away partly naked for the night
And that´s it for the day. a hard days work with help thanks to Jim Moss, Perry Quinn and Nigel and John and Tyler...To be continued
