...spend $110 at the junkyard to replace the entire rear axle with one with disc brakes and limited slip instead of rebuilding these blasted drum brakes.

The Challenge has started a problem. I am always looking at ways to fix/mod my cars as if every car I have is going to the challenge. Look at the repair I made on my Expedition this weekend (in another post here). I could have just purchased the replacement parts but no I have to see if I can make the part on a challenge budget.
Oh yeah, another one:
...throw away all the HVAC and other practically unsellable stuff pulled from thecar onto it, just in case.
...keep any and every part, nut, and rusty bolt because I'm sure I can use it one day.
Ok I havent done a challege car, yet , but it applies to all projects
