Today's cold weather reminded me that summer is over and winter is almost here. Plus, I saw a similar thread in another regional board, so I figured I'd ask it here too. Who's got a project(s) planned for this winter? As for me, I'm hoping to rebuild and upgrade the suspension on my GTA.

 

3500 stall and 373 gears.....might add nitrous dont know about that yet

 

just riding it like usual I work on my stuff year round though.

I need a paint job horribly, thinking about going to gray or something more manageable.

 

i also like mdformula am in need of a good paint job. But my philosophy is "I'll make it pretty when its fast enough" And we all know that although we say our car or project is done but we are already thinking about what else can we do to make power. So in reality, it will never be fast enough

 

i finally got new exhaust so ill install the 2055 headers and the hooker catback i also just put in a mini starter. For next race season ill probaly have 3.70 gears 2500 stall roller rockers and pullies. I plan on running it a few more times this year probaly 18th and 25th of november at mir

 

421 small block, th400, new axles spool and gears, line lock install with a new manual master cylinder, still a long way to go but hopefully it will be out early next year.

 

Paint the car
Cage
DS loop
Harris speed works LT1 NOS kit
Dual gauge pod with some more ultra light gauges


so ya im looking at another 2G or soo

305 tbi to carbed 355, 420hp 440tq, 2400 stall, 3.73 posi

 

New motor, new trans, some new suspension, new gauge cluster, a lot of re-wiring.......too much. of everything

 

new everything huh?

 

just put in a new 383 stroker i built.........need headers and carb still. also need to finish interior. dash is done and rear seat delete is somewhat done. also need paint, but i got to get it on the road first. i also need to finih my tranny before the spring........and many other last minute things.....

 

Let's see...for my Iroc I need to run new brake lines, master, line lock, adj prop, and fine tune everything together. Adjust the suspension, paint the car, and hopefully if I can I'm going to drop in the ls1/t56 with a tubular k , a few changes interior wise and eventually move on to buying and making my coworker's firebird a daily driver until I am ready to drop serious money into it.

 

Well, lets see, how about finishing my winter '04 project. Maybe this winter I'll get the '86 Iroc back together. Currently it is on a rotisserie in about 1,000 pieces.

 

NEW REAR FOR ME

 

Hopefully sell one of the other cars so I can re-do the interior in the 83 as well as fixed the cracked head

 

I got one. You can see it on the first page. =)

 

Polished pullies, polished water pump, chrome steering pump, chrome alt, aluminum rad, maybe chrome the acc bracket..or at least clean it up. I really want to compliment the polished TPI rig with getting the rest of the engine as nice.

Maybe I'll get around to the coil-overs and complete suspension upgrades. 1LE brakes too...maybe...

 

SFC's, adjustable torque arm,lwr control arms,panhard bar,(spohn up the suspension a lil) hooker supercomps, fabricate new y pipe, a lil paint rehab, and more i just cant think of it now.

 

Project is to get the smell out (carpet and headliner, maybe sound insulation) get it to run right, brakes and front end work to make it driveable, paint it, stereo... or just push it into the pasture and burn it!!

 

sorting out all my interior wiring, b&m shifter maybe some insulation on the roof and a headliner, finally squeezed the car in the garage next to the vette and i can actually swing the door completely open, nothing worse than workin out in the cold

 

305 coming out and 385 fastburn going in, IF I can get it over to the shop to get it swapped. Snow came way too early here My garage is too small to do it myself or I would, everything else I can do on my own though. Plan on tearing down the interior (carpet, seats. headliner already out) to start freshening it up.
