SO, who is getting some things done to their cars so they can get them on the road/strip soon.

I am putting new heads on my 65 Dodge and installing a 2nd seat. It should done in a few weeks so hopefully I can get it to the track on April 21.
 
im fixing an exhaust leak, putting new valve cover gaskets, and doing motor mounts--hope to be done by next weekend!!! :toothy12::laughing9:
 
I hooked up my small diagnostic computer thing and i have a bad 02 with sensor 1 on my Ram.. In-between finishing my interior and have old fuel tank out and the new one and surrounding areas painted, also putting on new rear shocks, yes the weather is great, do feel good! Good luck to you guys on your rides!

yes...the streets are calling now. My ride is with a tech along w/ a laundry list. carb,intake,valley pan replaced...timing needs to be set. have some electrical gremlins to figure out. losing the monster tach/shift light in favor of a Suntach 3 in. Hope to have her back by 1st week in April.
 
mine is locked and loaded, waxxed and detailed, and ready to roll!
 
Normally I'm the one with great California sunny weather...LOL... I shoveled snow off the driveway, out from in front of my garage, 6"-8" or so yesterday, so I could pull my RR out & fire it up...

Thank god, I have no grass to mow, but we are going to have a ton of weeds, growing up thru all the gravel, especially after a warm winter & a late snow, with lots of sun soon to come... Today is the 1st day of spring, it can't come too early in my opinion, yee haa
 
I'm getting itchy feet as well.I've installed my methonal injection and also intalled air fuel ratio gauge.Now just waiting for the snow to melt.GEEEEEEEEZ she is snowing right as I type.When is she going to quit:eek:I've had enough winter.

I'm with you Cam, I'm ready for a break in all this crappy weather we've been having this winter. Even worse than the usual crappy winters we have. The high temp at the house today was a sweltering 42deg F. I haven't been able to get my shop warm enough to paint.:censored:
 
77F here in Northeast Wisconsin today...Completely unheard of. Never in my life has it been this warm this early. I'm just scared to see how old mother nature is going to balance herself out the other way. I'm guessing i'll be shoveling in June. Either way, not complaining..Gotta say it's nice working out in the garage with the doors open and no heater in mid march.....Crazy!

I thought reading your post about snow just how odd being im the one doing that stuff, It is supposed to, according to the radio today be hot as last fall come AM, im sure afternoon it will be but i love it, i just don't like the storms when it decides to cool off again.. Last year we had another tornado come thru hear, We didn't get any real bad out of it but not 600 feet south of me is a drive way going way back im guessing 900 feet, in between is a couple 3 foot in diameter culvert pipes (creek) that it ripped right out of the ground and they were back behind us... Straight back from there it went and tore the roof off a guys house on the next dirt road over, both roads leading in hear were closed, it was a mess... I got to watch this one come to, its the second one we had in 20+ years, awesome is one word, scary is a better one... Hope it gets better out your way, cruising time coming around soon..
 
I guess I shouldn't really complain, we only get something like maybe 320+ non-incl anent weather days a year, with out any measurable precipitation, where I live in the Central Eastern Northern California Sierras Foothills.... I still don't like the wet stuff anyway...

how do your cars hold up w/ all that moisture?
 
Snow or rain

djais That's 320+ days of NO measurable moisture, would probably be a better way of saying it I guess.. Or only around 45 days were it's wet incl anent weather of any kind... The previous last 3 years it was way way over average those levels though, with something like 30+ days of snow alone & like 50+ days of rain, at the 2500ft-3500ft foothills level in the Sierra's... This year it's been really mild/dry or way below average wet weather, almost a drought only 3 days of snow here & maybe 12 days of rain... It either is dry as a bone or wet as hell... No in between...
