    I'm 63 years old.......50 ish years ago- I was *that* kid living in York PA.
    I hung out at my local garage, helped the owner and his son clean up their shop and helped clean up their 64 Nova they took to York US 30 every summer weekend.
    They paid my admittance every weekend.....I shoulda been paying them for all the good memories I have of those times.
    It's cool ....no *extremely* cool that you are doing the same thing 50 years later.
    It's what hot rodding is all about.

    This is why I put a giant door to the alley on my shop when I built it. I was the kid with no gearheads in my life, and wanted nothing more than to find a guy who would show me the basics. I remember letting the air out of my bike tires to have a guy in town fill them my dad knew. That was my in to get him to let me watch him build motorcycles, cars, and jeeps. Everyone with an ounce of knowledge about working on old junk or building new gems should do everything in their power to teach the kids who show interest. We love these things because we look at them the same way people look at art. They hold no value unless we give them value. Keep up the good work brother. Proud to have a Tangelo sticker on my tool box.

I bought it as a salvage title wrecked for $400. I fixed it myself, drove it to the mopar nationals as a 15 year old in 1985, and have been driving it ever since.

    This is the best car you own IMO, just love it, the green paint is killer. My grandmother bought a 73 Duster new, she was so proud cause it was the first new car she bought on her own. Her car only had a Auto trans as the only option, man brakes, no radio no power steering. She had it painted once, had the seats redone once, put 260K on it before she took it off the road and gave it to her mechanic ( it was burning oil ) in the mid 90's, she told me she didn't want me to get it cause she thought I would destroy it.

    Awesome job Tony! You can tell that Hudson has a real interest and love for muscle cars! I was always at my dad's side whenever he worked on cars from age 4 until I went to college and many times afterwards. He taught me so much. I rebuilt my first engine, a 383 magnum for a far too rusty 1970 Super Bee, with his help. He was also a great painter having worked as one for International Harvester for 30 years. We did the body work and repainted several cars including a 1966 Plymouth Sport Fury, a 1974 Duster 360, a 1986 Omni GLH Turbo and a 1969 Dodge Super Bee. As a kid, having someone to guide me that was so patient, understanding, and knowledgeable has paid dividends and made me confident to tackle not only cars but life itself. I'm 49 and lost my dad last December, but everything thing he taught me lives on. Every kid needs a kind mentor. ❤

    I had a 71 Demon in my younger days. It was a 340 car but had a 360 in it when I bought it. That car was a blast to drive and did burnouts for days. I had to let it go when I got married due to the fact that my wife would have killed herself driving that car. A year ago I picked up another 71 Demon that was in rough shape and needed a ton of work. I made a few passes at the drag strip and the 318 was pretty sad. At the moment I'm finishing up a Hemi install and should be back driving it in another week. You have a nice car Tony, glad you hung on to it!

    AWESOME. My first car was a 73 Dodge Dart Sport 318 with the super rare factory sunroof that was nearly half the size of the roof. Got it with 43K original miles from my Grandmother after it sat in her driveway my whole childhood (My grandad dided before I was born and she didn't drive). I loved that car espescially while everyone else was driving Honduhs and Nissans etc. I had a V8 muscle car and I did everythibg I coukd to make it a _REAL_ muwcle car. Magnum heads off a FI 318 of the time (early 90s) 4bbl carb, super rare Mopar cop-car steel wheels... evebtually sold it to a guy who collects Mopars here in the PNW and its still running around today.

    Great episode man! Hudson had the time of his life I guess. When you showed the engine bay my first thought was "Ouch, flat black engine bay treatment" - I had to more than grin that you lost no time to explain that this probably makes mopar diehards shed a tear :D Keep up the great work, man. You probably made a huge impact on the little guy! I salute you for that.

    Hey Tony,
    Great job buddy! High five!
    Back in the day I had a '71 340 Duster. What a beast!
    My Mom was into cars. We would go to the New Car shows at the local auditorium. One year we took the Duster. We went about 3 hrs before it closed. Stayed till closing and came out to essentially an empty parking lot. There sat the Duster under the pole light. I had minded all my P's and Q's on the way there. She said to me. I see you working on this all the time and spending almost everything you earn on it.(That car was far from stock.) What can this car do? I asked her are you sure? She nodded her head in approval. I took it to 4 grand and let it eat. Her reaction was very similar to Hudson's. She laughed and giggled. Not once showing any fear as I took it through the gears.
    Hudson will remember that time for the rest of his long life.

    Poor kid just wants to hit the road. 😅 I had a ‘72 Swinger 318 that was pretty cool but I always loved the Demon. There’s actually a few Demon’s running around Medellin Colombia where I currently live. Stay tuned amigo!
