keithb7 Posted October 17, 2021 Report Posted October 17, 2021 (edited) There is only a couple weekends left for me up here in Canada. Insurance runs out soon. Today was a good day here. I found nice quiet spot for a photo. If you got out recently, let’s see some pics. Fall foliage with your Mopar would be a real treat! None to be seen during my trip to the clay sand banks here.

plymouthcranbrook Posted October 17, 2021 Report Posted October 17, 2021 Cars have lain down for their long winter’s sleep Quote
RobertKB Posted October 17, 2021 Report Posted October 17, 2021 (edited) We have been having fabulous fall weather in southern Alberta! Recent pics within the last week or two. I’m getting an old car out every day while I can. I know what’s eventually coming. Edited October 17, 2021 by RobertKB 3 Quote
TodFitch Posted October 17, 2021 Report Posted October 17, 2021 Fall colors are not a thing where I am. And, for that matter, what passes for winter her probably wouldn’t be considered winter by many either. That said, I probably should have gotten the car out today but didn’t. Quote
Dodgeb4ya Posted October 18, 2021 Report Posted October 18, 2021 Yesterday took my 1952 Belvedere for a drive...last one for the year.. 5 Quote

Young Ed Posted October 18, 2021 Report Posted October 18, 2021 Last weekend we did a day trip with the MN plymouth club. Went down the WI side of the river and then came back home on the MN side. I did drive my P15 today after reinstalling my driveshaft with new boots. Tomorrow I can check if my 2nd try at sealing the overdrive worked! 2 Quote
Plymouthy Adams Posted October 18, 2021 Report Posted October 18, 2021 I cruised through a couple repair procedures on a vehicle, does that count? 1 1 Quote

keithb7 Posted October 18, 2021 Author Report Posted October 18, 2021 @Young Edwhat car are we looking at here? Is it missing stock running boards? What year did they drop them off the Mopar line up? Quote
Young Ed Posted October 18, 2021 Report Posted October 18, 2021 37 I believe and yes should have running boards Quote

However you disqualified by not posting any pics. ? let's rectify that shall we....procedure, to phase the drive line after installing a larger engine and a 5 speed tranny and upgrading to a 3.9 rear axle eliminating the stock 4.55 gears. Procedure number 2, I then changed the pinion seal, flange surface was smooth with no cut one could detect with a fingernail....so hopefully that is a done deal also. 2 Quote
Plymouthy Adams Posted October 18, 2021 Report Posted October 18, 2021 As a side note, if anyone here ever needs to correct phasing with use of shims....I highly recommend these...they are extremely well made..a couple dollars over some of the average ones you see but I don't really relate cast aluminum and open end slots average or close to par. Axle Shims, 4 degree, 1.75" wide, steel wedge, caster pinion angle WFO 4.0-1.75 | eBay Quote

Bryan G Posted October 18, 2021 Report Posted October 18, 2021 Cheating a bit because the photo is from earlier, but I drove the Chrysler to lunch yesterday and to church today. From here on out, weather permitting, I plan on driving it somewhere once a week if possible. 2 Quote
pflaming Posted October 18, 2021 Report Posted October 18, 2021 We have been in Maine since early June. Was bit by a tick and have been battling Lyme infection all summer. Still a lot of fatigue and very weak legs, just starting to walk again. Maine is beautiful, I love the woods, water ways, cool weather and clean air. We return to California October 28. Here are some recent cruising photos of cars along the way. 1 Quote
MarcDeSoto Posted October 18, 2021 Report Posted October 18, 2021 (edited) You're lucky Keith. My body is still off of the frame, but I'm glad I took the body off! Don't like doing major work on my back! Edited October 18, 2021 by MarcDeSoto Quote
greg g Posted October 18, 2021 Report Posted October 18, 2021 Much rain here. Supposed to clear off but stay in the mid 60s + from tomorrow afternoon on. Quote
Doug&Deb Posted October 18, 2021 Report Posted October 18, 2021 No pics but I’m daily driving my Coronet. This is my favorite time of the year for driving. Of course any drive in a vintage Mopar is good. 2 Quote

busycoupe Posted October 18, 2021 Report Posted October 18, 2021 There is a lot of nice looking roads today, but not many places to stop and take a pic. Here is one. 1 Quote
Plymouthy Adams Posted October 18, 2021 Report Posted October 18, 2021 yep.....ant and the grasshopper story repeats itself.....but then, the all work and no play may be applicable also.....goal today, have the other lift ready to mounts the lights, 3/4 way done with that at this minute....you folks enjoy the scenery...I live in an area where the transition is so blah blah blah it is not readily noticeable...pecans go from green to brown and usually under the cover of darkness as they go from green one day to brown and on the ground the next. My fall is marked with mulching leaves... Quote
