Thanks man!

Luckily I caught it in time bearings were fine spindle nut just wasn’t tight enough

Bearings were okay luckily just needed to tighten the spindle nut. Guess in my rush to get it ready for power tour I left it a bit too loose.

Bearings were fine just needed the spindle nut tightened a bit

Wheel bearings were fine just backed the spindle nut off too far. Tightened it up up a bit and everything was good

@@OldPlymouthGarage Lucky the spindle didn’t break off.

Southern Indiana but I have family who live in Louisville and Bardstown

@@OldPlymouthGarage nice I'm near Frankfort.

That’s what we did last year. Long hauler was sold out before we got around to buying the tickets

Thanks! Hopefully the Duster will be next years ride.

Thanks man nice meeting you as well. Have a great week!

Thanks man I appreciate it

I think electric was still a “option” at that point. My 73 has electric but it also has the 3 speed wiper which was an upgrade back then.

@@OldPlymouthGaragemy friend’s 70 Barracuda had the foot operated version. I thought it was weirdest thing. Trying to get ahold of my brother’s 383 74 Duster so I can it running again. Just needs a 83/4 rear end

Belongs to a friend of my sons he daily drives it and I helped him with some brake work over the weekend. Love seeing younger people enjoy these cars.

First I’m not planning to sale the car and if I was everything I’m doing is out there for the world to see. If it wasn’t for guys like myself and many others who enjoy these cars enough to spend the time and the little money we do have to fix them up these cars and keep them on the street most would end up in a junk yard. You are correct I don’t have years of experience or money to pay someone to build a perfect car but that’s not what my channel is about. If doing things on a budget isn’t your thing there’s plenty of channels out there doing factory restorations.

Yeah, tell yourself whatever you need to hear. Like you some part of a big movement to keep those shit boxes rolling down the road Have fun with it wear a mask. So you can protect yourself from the rust filled air. In other ancient chemicals you could be inhaling. Enjoy.

If I was trying to do a factory restoration I’d agree with you. But that’s not what I’m doing. The plan is to make a safe solid driver. I drive my cars they aren’t show cars.

They can definitely be dangerous I took a hit right on the nose and in the neck when one exploded on me. Hopefully the new grinding hood helps my right eye is already jacked up from getting something in it.

Nice job, that's alot work doing that, and takes time. I have done many factory replacement rockers and cab corners

I’ve got more experience on the mechanical stuff the body stuff is all new to me I’m learning as I go but I’m enjoying it.

If everything goes as planned the new inner fenders should be on this weekend.

lol yep that’s what I call it

Hey thanks for checking out the video! I totally agree the early 70s mopars are definitely my favorite cars.

Thanks man !

Thanks man I appreciate that

We took the scamp on hot rod power tour last year roughly 1700 miles that week with zero issues. Absolutely love these old cars

I have a couple more "Exciting" cars, but the Valiant gets the most reaction- waves, thumbs up, people wanting to talk & look at it@@OldPlymouthGarage

Hey good to hear from you man. Hope you’re doing well.

Appreciate it!!

Thanks

Thanks I appreciate it!
