Paint is hopefully going on by the end of june. I'd like to get a full bushing kit for the whole suspension, New Shocks/Struts, Subframe Connectors, fix the hole in my floor, and new tires. Its gonna be a bunch of money but I think I'll have a decent daily driver again.

'90 - I finally began officially saving for the new engine but I doubt it'll happen this year.

'92 - Nothing big. Its my daily and I've lost interest in doing any major performance mods. I have a lincoln fan and dcc controller that I bought at the end of last summer and never installed. I would like to add Steeda Sport springs to bring the front down but it's definitely not a priority.

weld in both new floor pans,
buy rear cobra bumper and weld on straight pipes,
put on upper and lower control arms that are sitting in room,
wire up tach that is sitting in my room too,
torque box welded up,
buy a 3g alt.,taurus fan, and DCC and hook that up,
put on springs that are sitting in my room, then buy some C/C plates,
I think thats a good years worth of work.
EDIT: Take out A/C and heater core, move battery to trunk

I will be working on an FFR so the 3 foxes I drive will either be sold or put into storage.



Well I may keep the 91 GT out to work on the "little things".
And the wife has been talking about a paint job similar to my vette's on her 93 LX.
And I may need to take the 4 eyed freak to a few car shows.


Unfortunately, storage sounds like a dream!
