Malar Autoworks

We promised a service truck and we will deliver. It's not your average rig as this is our own "homer". He's a 1970 dodge w200 power wagon that I've had since summer of 2018 and just finished a 5 year drivetrain rebuild. This is the first iteration of him with lots more to come. Currently working on plumbing in the on board air system and full battery bank system full of all sorts of 12v goodies for anything we may need

We've been pretty quite for a while but don't worry we have been busy with something that is very close to us, "homer" our 1970 dodge w200 shop truck. Unfortunately life got in the way for a while (3.5 years to be exact) and the truck fell to the back burner. This summer we finally dusted it off and started working on it again. Got the transmission pulled to replace the clutch after a failed seal soaked it in gear oil, while the trans was out we went ahead and rebuilt and resealed it as well as resealed the entire engine. New bushings and linkages throughout for the clutch. Figured while we had it this far might as well do the same for the transfer case, waiting on a few things before it can get buttoned up (twin stick shift rails, bushings and some shims. Along with the truck being parked we pulled the dash for some repairs from previous years being cut apart and random holes drilled for mounting. Much more to come in the coming months including power steering conversion, disc brakes and who knows what else.

Sorry for the long post but figured we'd give an update on how things were going over here.

Got this heater core knocked out for our customer after a few hiccups along the way (sealing gaskets to the body were in horrible shape and not sealing anymore). Got it all sealed up with some new foam seal and reinstalled. Now to tear into the bottom end and swap out the oil pump and rear main.

Unfortunately the malar autoworks family will not be in the car d lane cruise this year due to some major setbacks on the shop fish (broken, hard to source parts) but we will still be attending. Hopefully next year we will be back and possibly with more of our mopar fleet.
