Dang Indy! Take it easy. I had to have a shoulder reconstruction done. I still have a trick shoulder (long story but it involves me falling off a roof and breaking my wrist and shoulder then getting into weightlifting). If you will move your elbow in, palm up, then movehand/arm like you are going to touch your opposite shoulder it should pop back in.

RE: Truck Teardown
Got some more done today. Cleaned the rockers pushrods and valvesprings, vaccumed up much of the crap that fell down onto the head, removed the melted plastic from the cowl, cleaned and sanded the cowl valley so I can paint tomorrow morning, took out the HVAC unit, took out the passenger seat and center seat, but not the drivers...it is back over the rear bolt and I dont have power so I cant move it foreward so I have to get a wrench to fit on it, pulled up the carpet on the passenger side and dryed it up, cleaned up more of the engine bay, and put the last coats of color on the painted parts (thought they needed another coat)
^^Theres about half an Indy in there somewhere.

It looks like someone butchered that poor Mopar engine, by setting it on fire and then by ripping it's guts out! Say it aint so!

Got the dash, heater box, hood, and an extra instrument cluster so I can cut one up for customization. Going to start putting some stuff in today. Too dang beat to do all of it.
