Winter Projects

Jeremy sent me a picture of his car today with a caption about it being the last drive of the year. Made me wonder what everyone had planned for winter projects while the weather turns bad.

So here it is:

1. What are your winter project goals?
2. What do you plan to have done before new years?
3. What do you plan to have done before spring?
 
Drop Clevo into Shag during this month (ahem Jeff, Mike, Justin, etc.)
Drop T5 behind Clevo
Fire up Clevo during Xmas
Get Shag on the road during Jan.
Get Shag road worthy during Apr.
 
Road trip to Dave's
Haul what's left of the POS coupe back to KY
Make a Trailer out of it before Hot Rod Power Tour!
oh and put my house back together. :sad

Mike, Feb & March are the more realistic months most of this will happen, especially getting Shag on the road. Must have unrealistic goals or I'll never get it done.

Pull engine...try to contain your laughter
Tear engine down, inspect, re-detail, determine if I need new heads. Try to contain your laughter.
Re-detail engine bay.
Redo brake lines to look purtier.
Clean up some wiring.
Install engine.
See what comes next. Try to contain your laughter.

March time frame. Doing nothing but hunting for the rest of the year.
 
This Friday..

Front and rear brakes ....Rotors,pads,drums,shoes
Front brake lines
Roller perches
 
My goals:
Replace an outside door on the house.
Find a good lawnmower to replace the one that has rusted out.
Nap.
 
Finish roller perches
Finish BOSS 302 crossmember
Find/fix control arms
Paint the suspension (I hope that's a long way off, if I see a paint gun soon, I might have to commit hari-kiri :rofl )

If I get that far, I'm sure I can find other stuff to do. Can't get a whole lot done in the snow though :rofl

Probably over the Xmas break. My boss has grounded me from flying anywhere between Xmas and New Year's eve (cost cutting attempt). I'll have a week at home and it will be too cold to do anything else.
