here is one of the dart. its a 73 with a 68 grille and front bumper, a 67 hood and 70 doors. most of the interior is 69 with 70 cuda bucket seats. used to be my work car with a /6 auto. now its a 318 4 speed.
I don't have any of the 68 sweptline yet but I will start a thread in the build section as soon as I get a chance to get pictures. The motor from the sweptline is in this dart now.

I'm an electrical contractor, we wire just about anything. We specialize in commercial, industrial wiring and some residential, we also are a full service dealer for Generac, so we keep pretty busy. We are also starting to get into some high voltage utility line work as well. I just picked up a 1983 IHC bucket truck, which will be completely redone to match my two Dodge service trucks.
Here's a shot of a 2000A 480 volt service we did this year or a rock crushing plant.

Here is a typical homestandby generator, we install 10-20 of these a year.

Hello All,

I have an awesome job as a hydro electric operator at Chief Joseph Dam in north central Washington. It took me a 3 year apprenticeship after working in the same field as a soldier in the Army for over 20 years (Prime Power MOS 52E) but I finally got the job. I enter the powerhouse everyday with a smile on my face. A year and a half unemployed after leaving the Army sucked and I feel blessed to have this opportunity.

Here is a little run down;

Chief Joseph Dam is the second largest hydro-power producing dam in the United States. It is the largest hydro-power producing dam operated by the US Army Corps of Engineers. The single powerhouse is over a third of a mile long and holds 27 house-sized turbines. Alone, it produces enough power to supply the whole Seattle metropolitan area. 2.62GW, that's GIGAWATTS! Yes, I love this job. I love keeping the lights on.

That is cool that you can play guitar for a living. I also didn't know Studebaker Motor Company was back in business.
