Not much new

We had a "lazy weekend".  Yesterday we scraped what was left of the front and rear glass off the 300, which was really a safety concern for me, and not much else happened.  I am not feeling great so I took the weekend off and rested.

more pictures and updates will come as we progress.

Had a few set backs and have to re-imagine the project.  As I understand it, the 300 is AWD and since we did not know that before buying the 300 or buying the 6.1L hemi. I guess the AWD cannot handle the power churned out by the 6.1, especially if we "warm it up" so to speak, by porting or polishing the hemi.  And I guess to convert the 300 back to RWD instead of AWD is very difficult and can be quite expensive.

Since we won't be able to use the whole 300 as a donor car for a "body swap" which would have VERY complicated but do-able, we will now have to cobble rear-ends and transmission tunnels and all sort of fun happy stuff, that I'm not even too sure about.

While I would have LOVED to have something to show everyone when I actually have the 10 year cancer free party; there is no real "time frame" and if it isn't completed until the 15 year party.... then, so be it!!
