Projects What are the winter projects for this year? ~~2008~~

I am gettin real excited about my new winter project but I have to finish my damb Model A truck first. I am not sure but I may have the adult version of "A.D.D." . Amyway I am wondering what my fellow HAMBers are planning to constructed over the winter.

This is my list
1. Finish the Model A truck
2. Get the Model A Vicky mocked up
3. Build the Trophy for next years Billetproof in Ocala FLA. 2009
4. Build Enough crazy metal sculptures to fill a local gallery ( Feb. 2009)
5. Begin on my TOP SECRET OFF THE WALL SHOW CAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Hopefully getting a lot of stuff going on my stude.......



Also my side projects like 2 pedal cars, one a gasser and the other a flamed out custom.


Also a low riding wagon and some models i should have finished years ago, but the studebaker comes first!

 

well
okay my ones are
make my 53 lincoln to a daily driver (minor things left to do)
finish our 3 day build citroen b2 rpu
finish my 29 roadster
finish my girls veeduv
finish my 66 barracuda
finish my van

god damn this is way to much for 1 f....... winter

 

simple goals:

1. finish the body work on the 50, have it blocked and ready for paint in the spring.

2. Rebuild the trans.

3. Brakes and suspesnsion finished.

4. Save the $ to build the engine in the spring.

that last one might be tough.

 

1. finish suburban its been sitting 4 years.
2. final body and paint on my 36 truck.
3. chop and prime my model A

 

I plan on finally gettin' to work on my turd
1.disc brake swap
2.bag the front end
3.possibly channeling this big ol' bastard

 

The plan:
Debuting my car at the Primer Nationals next year:

That will include doing the interior and getting most of the bodywork done. I need to keep goals realistic, otherwise nothing will ever get done.

 

Im going to redo the wood in the model a and paint the buick I hope. maybe a dash for the model a too

 

I want to finish the body work and get some paint on my '37 Chevy.
But then again, that's what my plan was last year until the drag boat restore got in the way!

 

Down here, the winter months are our driving season.

 

I see why that boat got in the way.

 

Dang LSM! that boat is very cool!! I've always liked your 37!

 

Pullin' the sad ole tired 283 out of the 5 window before it takes a shit on some remote country road and puttin' in a 327 I found.

 

Here we go: Finish up my 63 Riviera (a/c, new carb, new gauges,stereo)
More work on my 54 Plymouth wagon/sedan delivery (wiring, lowering,
a/c, glass, paint, interior)
Start on 37 international D2 pickup (notch, drop in the chevy 250 inline
6, mount the quick change, four bar, stitch up the rear fenders, more
bodywork
Figure out if I am keeping or selling my 54 dodge panel (probably gonna
need the bux to finish all of the above
Sell my damn house so we can move to North Carolina

Get the '30 Roadster body together and in primer.

 

Getting started on '31 Chevy Coupe that I have been collecting parts for this past 6 months.

 

Get the complete chassis for the 48 finished out the way I want it. This will be the last major redo on this truck so I will be working at getting it right this time.
Outside of the front crossmember this is 80% labor to cash outlay so I just need to get my butt busy and get it done. It will take lots of hours but not a huge cash outlay.

Along with that, a lot of body work on the cab and hopefully progress on the roadster project.

 

Some body work, paint, suspension work on my 34. And hopefully get my 61 belair bubbletop at least a roller. We'll see how it goes.

 

Winter? What's that? Ohhhhh you mean those 2 weeks in February when the humidity and heat let up for a bit? It may get in the 40's.

 

...month or two away from tearing up and down dusty Kansas roads, or the snow.

 

I cant decide, ither do the body paint and interior on the 63 tbird or see if i cant put the marquette together so that when billetproof NW shows up next year, i have somthing to play with in te mud bowl.

 

Finish my 54F100 project.

 

Just finish something.
Anything.
Period.

 

get the model A running and close to paint...
swap out the inline in my 53 for a 350/700r4, disc brakes.....ac......makin it nice for the wifey!!!
safe up a buttload of coin for next yrs show....which will most likely cancel the top 2!!!!

 

Mine is to make my 56 F100 chassis a roller. And maybe, get the chassis painted.

Pull the bed off the '65 c10 and patch the holes, fix the dents and get things welded so it doesn't rattle when i drive. Oh yeah and get some whether stripping for the winter cold.

Sell the '66 corvair

Use the money to buy the '29 chevy PU I have been eye-ballin around the corner from my house. The guy wants $800 for it.

 

finsh my A mod by the big local in door show in april... now ive cursed it

 

Mine is to finish up the Valiant with some fresh paint and a make over. Probably a good under the hood detailing as well, cleaning, fresh paint, etc...

 

Try and finish granpas car. It is a 52 4 door 216 with powed glide. My great grandfather sold the horse and buggy to buy this car. And the family has had it ever since.
