A freshly redone original radiator from Bob at Glen-Ray radiators is just the thing to chill down this big block pony after chasing the Charger. Date Code and part number match up! I got some stuff bolted up yesterday then had to step out on another mission. Exhaust goes in next after the resonators show up. After that, the radiator and all fluids will go in. The following week I'll fix all the leaks of all the fluids that I just put in.
 Stay tuned... More to come as I review all the major papertowel brands to see which really is the quicker - soaker - upper of gear fluid Cheers Dave

Although you probably wont need them there are absorbing towels available from marine supply stores for chemical spills on water, they do not absorb water, just oils, anti freeze etc. https://www.newpig.com/oil-only-abso...ts-pads/c/5002 We always have a supply in our shop, they do not clean up spilled milk, so we dont cry over that.

Moving forward...... exhaust is in! I'm ready to fire her up this weekend! Maybe...
 This is exactly what Bullitt had: stock manifolds, stock exhaust minus the transverse muffler, and straight pipes out the back, no tips! This system is bolt on. So if the next owner wants to install the stock muffler with stock tailpipes and tips, it can be done with little effort. Exactly what I had in mind. I used the correct FoMoCo stamped clamps too! Is there such a thing as "factory correct " Bullitt?     Really looking forward to hearing this car crank over and fire up! More to come....Cheers Dave

That's going to sound great. There will be a you tube video, right?

Thanks guys! I'm really happy with the exhaust. Exactly how I wanted it to look and fit up.
Moving onto the rest of the engine bay assembly this weekend along with a few final exterior items. Next week will be diving into the door assemblies. Always a good time with such memorable moments as "How the hell did this go in here?" And "987 pictures of the inside of the door and not one of the view I actually need!!" Cheers Dave
