    I started my winter project tonight. I got my 47' Chevy earlier this year. It was built by Sinister Hotrods in here in Ohio. It's a great car, the problem is that someone else built it. So I am in the disassemble process. I am going to do a color change, mild custom work, new interior and set it down a little more. Then come spring I will pull it out and drive the wheels off...

    So, is anyone else working on something that they will role out in the spring?

    Well...I'm doing almost the same thing with my Essex this winter, but I doubt that it'll be ready for next spring. 2012, perhaps.

    My winter project so far seems to be shoveling snow and carrying in firewood. I can't get big items in the celler to work on them down there (it's a real celler and not a basement but it's comfortable as far as working conditions) so that's out. I can't even get my bicycle down there to finish it.

    Lately my real winter project is buying pieces for the 48 so I can work on it when conditions warm up outside or my buddy gets a bit of room in his garage and gets bored.
