In my world Rich, one word is worth a thousand pictures!

I picked up a new washer bottle for Lauri's wagon, as you can see it needed it. The fab aluminum one has corroded through so it had to go. The previous owner's student's in welding class made it for him a LONG time ago.
I cleaned the fender wells and firewall up a bit also.

Looks great Andy. That aluminum tank has character.

Hang on to the "old" tank!!

I am going to visit the couple we bought it from and offer it back along with the wooden horn button his neighbor made.

Looks great Andy AND you used the correct 1966 B-Body windshield bottle and pump motor! I changed my 66 Coronet 500 over to a 1967 set-up back in the early 90's because the 1967 parts were easier to find back then, but I will be going back to the correct 66 style set-up now that I have all of the correct parts ready to go.
It's also extremely cool that you're going to offer those special parts off of Morgan back to the original owners! I am not If cars had feelings, Morgan would be really thankful to have such fantastic owners all of his life!

Drove it again to work, Lauri took a customer home in it and scared the crap out of him but said he loved every minute of it He wants a MoPar now.

There is just something that can never be forgotten by a person not used to performance cars and that is the g-force acceleration feeling one gets from being in a MoPar! The look of panic at first is priceless, then the panic starts to fade and the sheer enjoyment begins then the next thing you might hear is..."I WANT one of these cars"!!!

Nothing exciting for me this week, but, I did wash the blue Coronet for the first time this year, and I started it and drove it for the first time since October. If it doesn't rain, I may just clean the wheels and tires and wax the car as well.
I also tried to get the green Barracuda started today, but I failed. I drove it last spring and summer, but couldn't get it started last time I tried either. That was October. I think it could be the fuel pump. It almost starts, but won't idle with the help of starting fluid or a little gas poured into the carburator. So, a fuel pump, and a fuel filter, will be my first attempt.

That pic shows a true Mopar addict!
