    2. Get our intake done....
    3. Get the Track Roadster drivable
    4. Start the Sport Coupe
    5. Un-stick these DAMN flatheads...!
    6. Enjoy myself in Hawaii
    7. Drink all the beer I want
    8. Hit the Lotto
    9. Well after #8 it gets kinda fucked up, right?

    Here's some shots of my resolution prospects....

    This list is about 5 years old but I'll rerun it by again, #1 is a new one.
    1. Get Dad's'31 Roadster running and licenced for my daughters wedding.
    2. Finish the Lyndwood rail
    3. Get the body for my '30 Roadster in primer
    4. Sell as much crap as I can
    5. Organize the crap I keep
    6. Build display cases for the good crap I keep.
    8. Organige the stuff in my library
    7. Learn to spell and organize things better
    9. Take steel TIG welding lessons
    10. Win PowerBall or Lotto, buy TIG welder
     

  5. Go to the March Meet, have a driver before June and go to Bonneville. I think that two of those are as good as done.

    1. Sell a bunch of stuff I've accumulated and no longer need.
    2. Build a new storage shed in the yard.
    3. Tear the Essex apart to re-do most of the chassis and drivetrain so I can make it more driveable.
    4. Once the Essex is done, start on the T.
     
  8. Break Charlies E/PP record at El Mirage and Bonneville. (he said he wouldn't mind :)) and build a Y-Block powered FED. That should keep me busy.

    Hit the open road and just drive more often. No destination in mind.

    Get the Cad chassis to a complete roller, drivetrain and all.

    Make love to the wife more often.

    Double my income, now that I'm laid off that shouldn't be too hard.

    Same resolution as last year and the year before...etc......

    To not have a resolution...

    My phylosophy...if ya gotta have a resolution....you prob already shoulda been doing or not doing whatever it was you made the resolution....

    Getting stuff done is a to do list...BUT working on something you havent been and feel like you should be is a resolution...

    Getting phylisophical I know....I get that way sometimes...not bein a dick....just my thoughts on the matter at hand.

    I've been building a 63 Chevy truck from the ground up to be a reliable daily driver. I've got about a month more of work to finish all of the details. Then, sell my Toyota 4x4 new truck and put the payment money toward a new TIG and Plasma cutter. It will happen.
