My goal is to finish my bronco II: I need to install the lift kit, flares, tires, engine, chop the back, install custom 4-point cage, atlas II transfer case, and have an exhaust made.

The stang needs the stroker motor and my choice of power adder. I have yet to decide what I am going to go with on that. In the mean time, I'll get the body kit, rims and paint done.

Well wright now im totaly satisfied by meeting my current goal of breaking into the 11's, but if I "were"to have another goal for next year it would be to run a 11.59 or better without adding the bottle to my current setup and get kicked out of the track for no roll cage.To accomplish that I beleive I would need a spec 3 clutch or centerforce, some gears 373s or 410s and some more practice at the track, and a lotta luck

How big of a shot are you planning to run? Torque boxes are a good investment. I installed the wild rides upper and lowers about a year ago. Once I cage the car, my chassis work is done. Then I get to do it all over again on a notchback LX!

For the 70: get the motor, fuel tank, fuel lines, brake lines, cobra brakes, and stereo in so that it's back on the road.

For the 90: get it painted.

For the house: Build the storage shed. Hook up my new compressor and sand blast cabinet. Get an air conditioner.

For work: Not get laid off.....

For life: Get rich and famous.
