    The prediction is that we're going to pay for the last couple of relatively mild winters. That being the case I suspect that most of my winter will consist of riding the snow blower. Any "Free" time will be spent in the shop finishing the Lincoln brake swap on the '38 and hopefully starting on the "mystery" drag project.

    Got a 38 Ford coupe to get going. Needs to be finished by April 2012. Have guaranteed it done to the exchange student we had a couple years ago. Him and his brother will be here in May :eek:

    I plan on starting my 57 F-100 project I've been putting off for too many years and a flathead FED to play with next summer. My boy picked up a nice 65 Falcon HT, we're doing an A/FX style race car out of it as well. We just finished my 40 and his 64 Ranchero so we gotta have something to do!

    I'll have mine driveable every spring, but probably do more changes every winter.

    Gathering more parts for a 27 T Coupe.

    I hate winter.
     
  29. Want to change the torque converter in my 34 Ford Coupe (avator). The cam is a bit much for the stock one, so have to pull the engine to get it done.
