So guys, what are the plans for your Mopar this winter?

[CB]

Maybe a bit early but it would be interesting to know what you guys are planning to do on your Mopar.
I want to get the front end rebuild (maybe add disk brakes), installing an electric ignition and do some interior work like carpet, seat covers etc.

So what are your plans?

[Charger4404spd]

About the same here. Need to rebuild front end, install new shocks and replace the leaf springs.
Would like to replace the dash and frontend harness, but that will have to wait a bit.

[MoparYoungGun]

My plans are to keep searching for a Charger.

[ChargerSG]

New paint on the Charger(should be darkburnt orange) and a new vinylroof and will for sure find more. 70 Challenger gonna get a 6-pack and fix all dents(in the back there is some work), to afford all this im selling my 71 Challenger....

[Khyron]

I'll be rebuilding my new trannie for it... 727 small block
New drive shaft for said Trannie <It's got a long tail, th e904 doesn't>
Rebuilt rearend with suregrip 3.55 gears

and anything else that I can think of

[dd44068]

possibly a new head liner it all depends on how much the boss will let me spend kinda on a budget

[41husk]

I will probably just store the Charger and get busy on the Challenger as time permits.

Hey, if you are coming down to the Q, Go talk to Dante...he usaully runs specials during the Q on headliners and carpets.

I got mine last year from him....tell him the piper sent you over   

[ron73440]

Finish my tranny rebuild, go from a bench to buckets and if I can afford it, maybe some frame stiffeners

[andy74]

new carpet,recover seats,new headliner-install 8 3/4,paint engine bay to match the rest of the car,and por 15 the floorboards, probably install the subframe connectors,and hopefully juice up one of these 440s i have!

[The Mad Scientist]

hopefully,

I'll get the garage cleaned out enough to park my car.  So it doesn't have to sit outside all winter.

[69bananabeast]

Hopefully swap front to disc and ill be done with my car for along time hopefuly

[JimShine]

Mainly engine stuff. I am rounding up the parts I need now. So far I have a new Edlebrock intake and carb, TTI headers, swirl port heads, and electronic ignition kit. I will also be repainting the engine, freshen up the gaskets, new oil pump, timing chain, and likely new valve covers.

[Dr. V]

Nothing for the charger, but I am making a shaker for the Chally.  BTW,  winter is sled season up here,   the cars get put on hold when the white stuff comes down.

[volk68]

I'm pouring over engine information at the moment in hopes of figuring out how to make more power at this altitude 

[Ctcharger]

New shackle bushings and possibly leaf springs.  Fix my guages so they all work.

CT

[694spdRT]

I am getting my original vinyl checkmark trim rechromed along with the original hurst shifter that stuff should be back in 8 weeks. I also want to freshen up the seatbelts.

Other than that we are starting to work on my brother in laws '70 500.

[Silver R/T]

well maybe just maybe Ill get garage so Ill have time to work on it this winter, interior needs done, some body work, but mostly I want to get my 440 built

[dd44068]

Hey thanks Piper what does he useally charge, any idea.

[cudaken]

 Hook a snow plow to it and pray for snow Got to pay the bill's some how!

[4402tuff4u]

My Charger RT will still be at the rehabilitation clinic over the winter. Hopefully it will be ready for the Spring of 06'.

[Telvis]

I'm hoping Cudaken can get my car painted and I can spend the winter putting it all back together. If all goes well I will be driving my car in the spring.

[greenpigs]

Save up for some new Magnum 500's and tires & see if I can drive it next spring. I've been waiting to long to drive it and no big project is going to keep it in the garage next year. Got to install the headers and make sure things are good to go before any new projects happen.

[mustanghater]

My plans are to keep searching for a Charger.

same here

[MoparYoungGun]

same here

Is there any specific year your looking for, I'm just curious? BTW, good luck on the search !

[Mefirst]

Hope to get her running before winter arrives..

During the winter Im not gonna do that much, probably more detail work in the engine compartment, try to hide more stuff.. Interior also needs attention, Ill probably fit in a cupple of race seats and shoulder harness belts.. Im probably gonna have a guy weld in a rollbar/cage next spring/summer, but nothing thats decided yet...

Most of al Ill pay of my debth to the bank over the winter so they will lend me more money when I start to build the Aluminium block engine Ive dreamt about next winter...

/Tom

[mustanghater]

a 66 or 67 their are a few in my area and 69's are getting expensive.

[golden73]

Front end rebuild...

oh, and turning my small block 360 into a powerhouse

[Lowprofile]

Complete dissasembly, send it out to be diped/blasted [no decision yet] and get it on the rotesserie. I'll be stockpiling parts, getting things ready for the spring.

[Plumcrazy]

Install my Eddy aluminum heads along with a new set of headers.
Switch my differential over to synthetic lube.

Plus I'm sure I'll think of or find a few more things that need done.

[70charginglizard]

 

[Goldfinger71]

My front end is now being rebuilt and the the k-member powdercoated,the engine compartment is being sandblasted and painted.And I have decided to just take my time and save up my LIFE SAVINGS and buy TTI headers instead of the Hookers I was going to buy!

[73rallye440magnum]

simply said- finish it.

[DarkAngel0816]

Interior work and the parts of the frame that is bad...get that fixed.

[bluesfool]

Unfortunately, the same as last winter since I didn't even touch it during the cold season.  Fix the leak in the tranny, replace window seals, do a few odds and ends to the interior. Overall, nothing major.

[DC_1]

Hope to have mine stripped to a shell by the end of Sept. Then get it on a rotisserie for th ework to begin. Would like to have it ready for paint by spring......I know Iknow I am very ambitiious!!!!

[Troy]

I get to completely restore two full cars! Well, I work so much that I might just move them around in the garage once in a while...

Troy

[Blusmbl]

Probably going to yank the engine/trans and send it over to a friend's house to get the bodywork done.  It's time for new metal around the window, and new quarters, too!

I have a ton of stuff I want to do to the motor, and I need to go through the trans,  so I'm not sure when it's all going to happen.

I should buy a house, instead I'm dumping thousands and thousands of dollars into my Charger... 

[ramminon]

cut out the rust and weld in the new 

[DC_1]

cut out the rust and weld in the new

If you need extra rust to weld in let me know........I have some extra!!!!

Just kidding!!!!!!!!!

[Dans 68]

...drive it!  

[TheGhost]

Drive it to and from work, while I save up the $$$ to pay for the bodywork that needs to be done.

[73ChargerSE]

Fix all the issues it has and fix the tranny line leak that I discovered in auto shop yesterday  . May do some of the body work this year.  Maybe work on the Coronet a bit more, its been neglected.

[PlumBad70]

Hopefully my car will be done and painted and all I have to do is put it back together

[Ghoste]

Body and paint.  Rechrome the bumpers.  Reupholster the interior.

[mopar_madman]

hopefully paint it this fall so I can reassemble over the winter.

[THE COLONEL]

I might rebuild the engine and tranny on The Colonel.  That would be nice.

[greenrt_se]

keisler 5-speed trans  and  rear end lock
