Re: Any other projects in your garage?
Just finishing this one off... Gonna get it done and sell it to finance my 68 pickup. This is fun, but just not functional enough. Gotta have something I can drive year round. This picture was after I got done wet sanding and buffing the car. There's nothing like cleaning all the slime off a car after that... This is atomic orange, a 2008 vette color I believe.

Re: Any other projects in your garage?
I bought this 56 from a girl at work a couple of years ago. It was her fathers car. It was restored 20 years ago. All original with a 265. Part of me say's leave it stock and part of me say's put a big block in it and hot rod it.

Re: Any other projects in your garage?
I've had my 73 CJ5 for over 15 years and have taken it through numerous rebuilds. We try and get it out a few times during the year, but lately it seems like we struggle to find the time.

Re: Any other projects in your garage?
Great thread guys,I've only read a few of the posts but will enjoy reading all. My most unique project is a custom built semi replica of a porsche 550 spyder(the james dean car).It has a custom chassis I designed along with special design suspension. It is powered by a Northstar mid-engine in the back. The body is fiberglass and heavily modified to fit the chassis. Next big step is paint.

Re: Any other projects in your garage?
Hey Chief..
It's like Lakeroadster said.... I posted the above and when I previewed it it had been auto-edited...which I didn't understand at the time...so I thanked the editor (system in this case) at the end of my post.... And THEN..............Liz sent me the above. Whatever. I sure don't mind someone helpin' keep me out of trouble.

Re: Any other projects in your garage?
As soon as the truck is running I'm going to restore my wife's 67 VW Beetle. Its been sitting for 20-something years and is in bad shape, but her daddy built it for her and gave it to her for her 16th birthday, so fixing rather than buying a different vw will be the goal. besides, I'm getting a welder soon and that will be my practice project
 After that I have a 63 nova that I am dying to build. The plan is a twin turbo 496 BBC, 10pt cage, front clip, big-and-littles, etc.

Re: Any other projects in your garage?
I have had this for years... and I haven't touched it in years, LOL
 And the wife's car... she bought this the month after she turned 16(which was a very long time ago!) and until 10 years ago was the only car she had ever owned. I painted it, did the interior and installed a new engine (all several years ago). I need to finish the suspension and the A/C. Now it sits in the garage covered because she is afraid somebody is going to scratch it.
