    Duster is getting there…Really looking forward to it hitting the track. Looks like a story time from Jonny Mopar on his High School Charger is needed!

      Ah yes. Long over do. I did tell it on Talking Mopar episode 20. If you don’t already know Chris Albrecht has been loading up his older podcasts on RUclips. Check out Talking Mopars on RUclips. I think I saw episode 16 just got released. So should be soon.

    Man that Duster is coming together nicely! What a legit Racecar! Glad you got yourself a Mopar Cat to keep you company in the shop and Judge you from a far Ha Ha, That's what Remy the Adventure kitty does! Dang, you got so many awesome projects going on! 2022 is going to be your year Jonny!

      I hope so too Duddie. Congratulations on getting to 1k subs. I have a feeling it’s going to be a good year for all us rag tag RUclipsrs. At least I hope. And yes, my kitty is cool. For now she (or he) only gives me a hard time about dinner time. Other than that she’s happy go lucky and doesn’t judge (yet).

    Good job on the firewall, I will have to check my rule book, but I am fairly certain the tech guys will frown upon a rear firewall made of wood of any thickness. Something to check on, I made mine from sheet steel and glued/riveted it in place.

    • @JonnyMopar
      @JonnyMopar  3 года назад

      Yeah, your the 3rd person to tell me that. I’m gonna have to redo it. Guess another rear firewall video is coming out in my future.

      Thanks Kevin. So close. Mike said I have to have a non flammable barrier between the trunk and cab so I’ll have to redo that, might sneak it in as if for now. And I have to close the speaker holes. Agh. Never ends.

      @@JonnyMopar that is correct. Endless content 👍🏻
      You could just screw the proper thickness aluminum to the back side of the X brace if you wanted to make the tech guys happy. I don’t think it even has to seal perfectly and you wouldn’t have to redo your nice looking work. Just a option

    The Sassy Grass Green is one of my *Top 3* color choices for that car. It reminds me of the Kawasaki green color on some of the bikes back in the 70's.

    For some reason , I was under the impression that the rear firewall needed to be made of metal. Incase there was a fire , so you would not get a burn thru situation.

      You’re right. Mike Coffey told me the same thing. Looks like I’m doing a part II.

    I can’t tell what you have for rear suspension, my opinion put on caltracs springs and bars. I run a 8 inch wheel and 9 inch slick, no problems. And I vote repop tuff wheel!! Car is looking good!! I like it!!

      I have Cal Trac rear leafs. I’ll go to Cal Trac bars eventually. A repop Tuff wheel is a good option.

    Sears was the Amazon of its time and if they would have just went to the old way of doing their business like catalog sales/ internet they could have been a Giant once again kinda sad to me . The car is looking good 👍

      You’re totally right Sean. Way back in the day you could buy a Sears house kit, guns and pretty much anything. If they continued the old Sears catalog and just moved that to online, yeah Amazon wouldn’t exist.
