Get it done

This 78 dodge is my buddies newest car… his second newest are all 64 darts and polaras

Anyway, he wanted to pick up this satalite from Georgia and haul it back to Memphis

He had to convince Uhaul that it was the one ton van but they let him rent a dolly and hook it up to his bumper ball

anyhow. Dalton Georgia back to Memphis with just a 318 that’s never been rebuilt except we replaced the nylon teeth timing set

Makes my excuses not to do stuff seem pretty lame



hope all are well. I still can’t get to C.O. From my work network so it’s really kept me
from reading too much or posting

That’s a feat for sure….but it all looks so damn cool!

I just got back from a 3850 mile towing trip. FLA to CT then back to NC and then back to CT and back home to FLA.
It really makes you appreciate all of the idiots on the road.

I can’t be for sure but I think they’re nearly the same color. The van has brown/gold/copper carpet. Sconce wall lights and 2 rear egg shaped captains chairs that rotate. The fronts match but don’t spin

it had a bed behind the back seats but for the
sake of health and safety we trashed it

I moved a 442 a couple years ago with a rental 3/4 ton dodge and a uhaul auto trailer. No fuss at all.
