If youve got a winters project in front of you, the question shouldnt be whats on your list. It should be more like the commercial says: "whats in your wallet?"

Thanks Bart,  But one goes with the other.  I can not really start on my car till I have a place to do it.  I hope I can get something figured out soon to get both of them going.  Too many panels to replace just to let it set out in the yard.   
Got a pretty good start on my M46 optioned Barracuda restoration but now it is on hold till I can gather more funds.  Still need a few parts for it.  SIU Graduate 75 AAS Automotive Tech, 94 BS Advanced Tech Studies, 1997 MSED Workforce Education and Development

It's not a long term project(hopefully). It's something I need to do but don't want to.   :crying:

I have a seepy tranny fluid leak that needs to be dealt with. Nothing bad, but enough to be a pain in the arse. I know what I need to do, but I HATE the smell of tranny fluid. It makes moth balls smell good.   :lol:   :lol2:

I'm replacing all the wiring in my Duster. Also re-doing the front seat, getting new carpet & headliner for it. Painting the dash black and putting a new pad on it. Installing my Tuff wheel, getting new tires to mount my freshly painted Rallyes on. Pulling the motor to paint and paint the engine compartment. Probally installing white 340 stripes and hood pins :2thumbs:

Rewiring the Charger.  I've already started because I love working on the car in the fall when the temps are perfect.  :grinyes:

Or get ready to mount your snow tires and tread salt.   Bet it's gonna be cold. 

Now where's that challenger 6pk 4 wheel drive at when you need it?

Swapping the low compression street 360 for my 425 horse, over cammed, hot rod 360. Undecided if the tunnel ram and dual quads will go on yet of if they will wait until I do a cam swap.

Finish the 4spd swap.

Brace the under carriage and start the cage layout.

Exchange the original mush suspension for something a little sportier; 1.22 t-bar, 1.125 s-bar, zero arch springs, 1 rear bar and adjustable shocks.

Install my bargain purchase Supra seats. These things are like 12 way adjustable with major side support.

Figure out why the gas gauges always reads empty...oh wait, that's a different problem...
