new interior and alum. radiator in my Dad's '64 [no 56k]

New dash/interior:

Controller for Custom Autosound Secret Audio system

repop carpet, headliner, package shelf, dash pad, and weatherstrip
new door panels made using original metal trim
replated plastic on dash and armsests
new seatcovers made with NOS cloth/vinyl

The cheesy steering wheel cover is temporary until my Dad can figure out what wheel to put in it. That one is cracked all to hell underneath the cover.

The car has always been a driver, but Dad had been having some cooling issues since the new motor. The twin Spal fans are total overkill, and even tax the freshly rewound 60-amp alternator. One fan is set up off a thermostat, and the second is run off a switch for if it is ever needed. Now it's ready to cruise without worry!

Keep your eyes peeled for this car and mine at the Mopar Nats!

The exterior is a newer Mopar white. He's had the car almost 15 years, it took a lot of time for him to be able to get it to this point. Future plans call for HEMI motivation, with the 440 possibly going into Dad's '84 Ram beater.

What a pair... the '64 and his '69 Hemi 4-speed Road Runner. Notice the stripe on the driveway next to the '64. :)

And the chase vehicle, '03 Ram white on blue to match the '64 with factory 20"s and DJM lowring kit. Soon to get dropped spindles to rake it a little more.

...and he's got a 2003 HD Heritage Softail as well. I hope to have that many toys when I'm his age (55).

Looks simply awesome!! I'll keep an eye out for it at the Nats.

I'd say my grandpa's '71 Demon 340 will be there and hopefully I'll have a new Neon or other Mopar by then to take. My grandpa also has a white Hemi Ram that's almost identical to your dad's.

BTW, we can say such words as fuck here? GLOORRRIOUS!

Fuck you .org! You fucking censored piece of shit!!!! :lol:
