What haven't I done is more like it.
While replacing a burned out taillight, I found there was an unused socket opening.
Quickly rummaged thru my "extra" parts bins and found two new GM dual element sockets. Wired them in and replaced ALL the rear bulbs...they needed it.
What a difference. REAL bright. Total cost: $0
While doing the taillights I noticed the wire for my rear defroster had come off the glass. Looks like a bad soldering.
Anyone have this happen?
Started removing passenger's side interior for floor replacement.
Previous owner had driver's side fixed.
Passenger's side is in desperate need.
ALWAYS getting into something.

No options for a AMC 360 at the time so I went mopar 360, mopar 727, jeep D300. Driveshaft doesn't have a straight shot to front yoke. Thus flip, outboard, etc.
My 360 is at about 400hp or more. Fully race built except the cam...put in one for torque. Changing cam would net me in the 550hp range but idle like poop.

Yeah, well, it might be mean, but I figured that since the little B2 was a one owner, garaged-kept D/D, I might as well make it "feel welcome" by sliding it into another garage. The poor lil' bugger is going under the knife tonight. Goodbye stock drivetrain ( 2.8 V-6, 5 spd, junk axles), hello monsterficationing: '93 Mustang Cobra 5.0, NP 435, Early Bronco D-20 X-case, and EB 9"/D-44 with factory installed 4.10's and a Detroit in the 9" .
Double Whoot!!! Oh, and a soft top conversion right after the first time that it either blows out a side window or rolls.

Make a build thread in the other vehicles section, it would be interesting to watch the transformation.
