Ted Berris built my engine!

Ted Berris, Moparguru from the 1st hour, built my engine. A lot of dutch people know Ted. A humble guy, who builds the most outrageous methanol lurkin'hemi's.

It's been a while

October 31st, our son was born! That's the main reason for not keeping the blog updated for the last few months. Diapers, more diapers, bottles of milk, diapers. You know the story!

RaceTec pistons came in!!

10.5:1 compression. Original bore 426 cubes of Mayhem!!!

Ted Berris is working on the engine

Mopar-Guru Ted Berris is in the middle of rebuilding my engine. some specs: - 426 wedge, decked, linebored - lightweight h-beam rods - 10:1 compression forged pistons, custom made to Ted's specs - Max Wedge heads - Mechanical cam, specs known to the builder and owner - stainless steel valves It will have ample power to drive the car on Sunny sundays

Rolled her outside

I put 15 inch steelies with NOS Goodyear Powerstreaks under the car last week. Sun was shining, so I thought it was a good time to roll her outside.

Rear window and front windshield are in

Hans van Stokkum, of H & S paint ( who painted my car ) and my dad, mounted the front and rear window last week.

Doorpanels mounted!

me and Tommie worked our asses off to get the sidewindows and regulators in. Worked fine! And we mounted the doorpanels. They needed some massaging to get in..but...who the hell doesn't!!

Medium-Blue headliner is in!

Jan van Hoof of JVH-bekleding, who fixed the fabric on the benches, also mounted the headliner! It turned out great!

Mounted the rear quarterwindows today

With help from my bud Tommie!

More parts came in..

In a few weeks, me and my friend AND enginebuilder Ted Berris will meet up, to discuss the build of the engine. Want to have it done by July.
