As Joe-mama will tell you after we met at my home a couple of weeks ago, it's hard to tell when I'm smiling because of my "Garden Gnome" style white beard, but you'll be able to see the extra "sparkle" in my eyes my friend!
My best friend who is also a life long Mopar fanatic and who was the last one to drive the car back in 2005 before it was parked, may be coming over to my home this coming Monday to check the car out and take her for a spin, so if that happens, I'll see if I can have him snap a couple of pictures, as while my beautiful wife of 34 years is almost perfect, her picture taking skills with my new Canon camera are .....well....... not so good.

Originally or what I got? Two different things.
The INTENT was to fix the rear main seal and some other 'minor' things.
I wound up with a new power steering box, transmission line, master cylinder, heater hoses and torque converter. Rear main, valve cover and intake leak fixed. Transmission leak fixed. Cosmetic body work on the hood and hinges. Replaced and painted latch support tray Driveshaft balanced. Painted engine and did a little detailing. My mechanic is a perfectionist and cleaned up a lot of other mechanical and cosmetic issues under the hood and around the car. His work is perfect or is itsn't done and he ate a lot of hours on this job just to do it to his standards. I'll pick it up this weekend. I can't afford to drive it anymore but it'll sure look good.
