Get my 34 in driving condition. A stretch goal would be to have it driving/in primer before mid June so I can pick the kids up from school in it. This means dedicating garage time and going on a strict car parts budget, buying only parts needed for the 34 and letting the other back burner projects parts wait.
I would like to get my floors done and be ready for paint next winter. I am taking an auto body class at the community college so I will get in 8 hours a week for four months. Hope to fill all the trim holes, shave the door handles and get started on the rest. I am gonna take the paint off soon to see what im dealing with.
My goal is to get my 54 bagged and driving by the end of August so I can take my kid to his first day of school in the 54.
Wellllllll, I want to ride in my 48 aero by spring, swap engines in my 33 chev 5 wdo, finish 2 bikes, go to Bonneville (hopefully as part of a race crew) and start my shorty school bus. There is absolutely no reason for me to not achieve these goals!! Also I will be learning to post pictures within the week. peace
My goal for 2011 is to finish my Ayala tribute ford coupe in time for the next Renegades long beach show
Reduce current debt (rough year ) Get my truck safe and on the road get my dads Terraplane 8 engine back together finish my el-cheapo garage We'll see how it goes...
It's still 2010 and my goals are changing. I was going to get my model A on the road in preliminary form by spring so that I could enjoy it with my 5 year old daughter. She loves car shows, races and cruising and my wife got me to sell my 65 last spring to paint the house. Fast forward and my wife is my ex, I'm paying out to lawyers and what not and the A hasn't made progress so that leaves me with the need for an inexpensive older car that I can just drive and do stuff with my little girl. My goal is to get something to have fun with and get the A started. That and survival of another year. The ex left and I found out that I had my house and to vehicle loans that hadn't been paid in over 8 months ( I put the check in the bank and she was suppose to pay the bills). I'm getting that stuff straight and trying to figure out how to get any decent older car on the road on the cheap for now. Life will be good if I just get those goals taken care of!
Run vintage supermodified more often, Teach my twin 12 year olds how to drive in my dads old sreet legal sprint car, get the wife to like camping in a vintage 1951 Boles Aero
To try and understand my wife better who is 16 years younger than me... some call me a cradle robber I try and make them understand she is just a damn grave digger...
My goals for 2011....... Finish this POS: Start this project: and build my new shop now that I have some land
Get my son to do the the work and enjoy it, not wait for for me to do it and get the benefit. I hate shitty vidio games....
My goal is to get the buick together enough to run it in and out of the garage by the spring. Have a look . Its a big project to say the least . http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=522617
my goal in 2011 is to REALLY settle myself in my mind as to what car i REALLY wanna own... i keep going thru cars every 6 months to a year... i REALLY wanna have something i can know ill want forever.. i just dont know what that car is... part of me wants to give it all up, part of me wants to move on to a different type of car.. planning a kid with my wife has had me all over teh place for teh last year or so... i just dont know if i see the point anymore... or atleast the point of teh never ending projects.. as evil as it sounds a 64 tempest or chevelle or something with a nice motor/suspension/and other minor fun stuff would be great, and wouldnt cost me a few thousand dollars every year in "upgrades"... idk, im lost, hopefully by 2012 january ill find the plan
To get my Dad's '31 Ford p/u ready in time for Cruisin 'the Coast in October. My Dad is retired now so maybe he will get on it! I am also going to talk myself into putting my '64 C10 together.
I'm telling ya, you need to just go ahead and trade me for a '33 3w and a I'll throw in a '32 5w body as well! I want to bring that car back to it's original look so damn bad I can taste it!!!
My high hopes goal is to get me Falcon wagon on the road for the Jalopy showdown but at this point i settle for just having the engine in and running
If my truck will move on it's own power out of the garage, I'll be happy. Everything else will be a bonus.
Reroof the car shop, Stucco car shop, finish Mrs. Jalopy's sewing room, and finish the 54F100 project ( youngest daughter wants to use it in her wedding )
Let's see, last year, my goal was to have the car driving. Since life constantly gets in the way and I spend a LOT of time out of town, I'm taking a more realistic approach. This year, my goal is to have the chassis finished.
