Whats your project plans for 2008?

I bought my 65 Riv in November 01,... in the past six months it has finally really picked up speed. My goal in 08 is to get the new wheels on it, paint and hopefully a fat lucky interior. Looking forward to a model A coupe project. Just wondering what everyone else has in the works for the new year.

 

Gonna get the 36 coupe and 56 caddy driving down the road....not finished just driveable. Also a fat lucky interior in the caddy the 36 is gonna be a fun project, it's gonna start off real simple just so it can be driven around and as time and money allow.......custom taildragger! Here's to a productive '08!!!

 

Thin the herd down by 3 of 4, make one of the keepers run and drive.

Get mynew 64 Galaxie home... Its about 750 miles away at my inlaws ranch...

 

win the lottery ..

 

Air bags and BDS blower for my 56 F100.

 

Finish redoing the 66 BSA first. Then its either chop the top on the 54 or get started on the model A. Also probably buy another project I don't have room for when I get a tax refund.

 

Get the 36 Fruck on the ground Z the rear Frame, make it moveable under it own power. That means motor freshened, brake lines in Master cylinder done Gas Tank and fuel line, Body /Bed Mocked up possibly fenders even.

Pull the Nova from the house garage and start the re rebuild of the front of the chassis so it steers ansd stop then trade for a Model A.

 

Trying to get my 58 RanchWagon on the road by Paso memorial day weekend. Hoping to ring in the new year with the Windsor swap this weekend, then on to the paint, bags and interior...

 

Tub my 41 ford,, new narrowed rear frame

 

Drop in the replacement motor and tranny, brakes and come up with something that resembles an interior..... oh yeah then there is the glass, wiring, replace the pass side rocker.... ah crap now I'm depressed!

Starting on a re-do of Slick, my 58 Chevy P/U. I can't believe I'm saying that after 2 years of dollar menu meals, staying home, and scrimping every dollar to be one of the first to get one of the new challengers.

But with money in hand (NOT ALL the money just a good down payment), and the production date only 3 months away .... I paid off almost all our bills instead and went back to old iron instead.

 

Hey Terry! Born and raised Odessan. How's the flat land?

I had really hoped to have my truck ready for the '08 Round Up, but too many 60 hour weeks blew that away. Now I have accepted a position that will have me traveling for the whole year. Maybe I'll get some work done on a few weekends and make it in '09, instead.

 

Get off my fat ass and do some work on that truck.

 

Well, my big project plan is to finish my friggin house! Then maybe I can focus some attention back into my cars. Hopefully I'll have my 55 Buick back on the road by the end of summer.

 

Get my own car done, finally. I've been building so much stuff for other people that I've got nothing of my own to drive at this point...

I've been working on this off and on (more off than on lately)... This is what I started with (this is the good side), and this is where I am now. Keep your fingers crossed.

 

Sell my 65 fastback and start building on my 27 dodge

 

im going to build a canvas streamline top for my coupster, get it goin under its own power by summer hopefully!

 

Get the Dodge on the road and build a new teardrop.

 

Put in floor pans. Pass. rocker panel. Get interior done. Shave trunk key. Get my actuators in the doors. Have it all primered and on the road by late spring. Oh yeah it's a 56 Buick special.

 

Finish our all steel 1940 willys pickup.
Gasser Girl

 

Have the new panel truck back together and in primer atleast by turkey run.

 

I say it ever year,,,I hope to get the wagon finished and on the road.HRP

 

To get it on the road

 

Get my 50 coupe on the road long enuff to make it to Billetproof in FL...then sub-frame it...it is going to be my daily driver eventually so I have to make it somewhat reliable.

 

this year i plan to get my project, 30 gasser coupe on the road,and make my 67 fast back mustang adaily driver, maybe i can get one done.

 

Get my 54F100 done for Rust Revival, then Start on my 38 Ford pickup.
Reality is that the 54 will probably make the pile up, With how buzy I have been at work.

 

To find a 4 speed to go behind a 390 that's going into my VW beetle project.Also to get my garage built in spring so I won't have to work in the carport.

 

I gotta get my firewall in and steering finished. Then comes the tranny crossmember and 4 link/rearend. Then I get to take all that shit and start fixing rust. at some point the doors need to go on and then maybe put some wiring in. I almost forgot about the seats and the glass. Damn when will I get bodywork done. WOW I go lots O work to do on this one.

Oh wait I also have my shovelhead......We won't even go there.

I may need some help this year from my other sock fuckers!!!!

 

Rebuild the carb on the 52 and be cruisin by April.
