Getting the 3:73 in the DANA, [found timken axel bearings] get it all done and put in the 70. First road salting, she is done till spring. Start it up about two times a month, get up to temp., run 20 min. or so, shut it off. Mix race gas & add. to keep gas good. .

Where do you get the LED bulbs and how much?

[FlatbackFanatic]

Lots of plans, no money,(again). But probably some little things,fix some of the small rust spots that are starting. I like to start it at least once a month in the winter, just have to hear it running, so I can make it through the winter. If I had the money I'd get it painted and the bumpers re-chromed, and a new tail light. Then just enjoy it.

[Mopar2Ya]

I'm hopping my car goes in for rerestoration this winter. I had it painted/body work ~4yrs ago, & I wasn't happy.  I've been saving to take another run at it. The new guy has a rotisserie, so hopefully that will help, plus the full qtrs are available now. I'll start a thread w/pics as soon as it starts. I'm also in the process of buying another drivable Mopar of some sort.

 I've gotten a quote from Brewers Performance to convert my auto to 4-speed. Kinda pricey, but really not bad. Sure would like to do that this winter. Also, I've got a little pesky bleeding I'd like to fix. The rear main seal is leaking, (seems to be worse when the car is moving down the road) sprays oil all over my pretty TCI exhaust the smokes like a house fire when ever I stop. YUCK!!! I've got a re-built 440 on a stand ready to go. Yup, 4-speed and re-built engine those are the plans. MONEY is the problem. Heck, the cost of Kerosene alone to heat the garage while I'm out there. Sheesh.
Happy New year to all of you.
Salute.
Jeffery.

My winter plans? To visit my car 

I'm REALLY hoping I have it back before Spring. I still have to get the rest of the interior done... I look forward to seeing what you guys are up to this winter

[tan top]

well been a few years since i put the charger back togeather .. with all new M&H harnesses , but finaly going to by pass the amp meter  convert to a volt meter  & do the MAD wiring conversion or something along them lines , while keeping it looking as stock as possible   also fit a passenger side door Mirror  ,   oh yeah  re fit the correct 216 fan , 

[gordo1968charger]

replace my dash harness,engine harness,rebuid my airbox and heater matrix,fit new carpet.weather is shit so hoping to get it done for the end of february,for maybe a nice bit of weather in march.just in case last years summer comes late.

[greenpigs]

Got it running as good as I could so this winter its getting simpson 3 inch lap belts and hook speedometer cable up. Then I need to replace power booster or go to manual brakes, with MP master cylinder. Also my power steering pump is leaking BAD and that needs rebuilt or I sorta want manual steering. Then if I got the coin some draglites and new rubber. 

[Ghoste]

Cam swap maybe for mine.

[Road Dog]

Drive it some more.

[Foreman72]

looking at tearing out the interior and hopefully getting some prelim thoughts/plans on what this car is gonna need in the metal department...maybe maybe maybe if i get lucky, really really lucky pulling the engine...but my goal is interior removal, thorough cleaning and assessment

[LeadfootBob]

Uh... Everything?  
First priority is to get it driveable and road legal, then I'm looking at fatter torsion bars and SS-leafies, sway bars and new gearing (2.71 is not my cup of tea), maybe some discs up front would be nice? Then maybe replace the trunk floor and install the six-point rollbar I've ordered, get a decent converter and cam... and... and... The fun never stops!!!!  

[SFRT]

well..just got done welding the subframe connectors and torque boxes, installed a linelock, mounted a set of cheater slicks on a second set of rims and installed 4.56's gears. this week final suspension 'tune' so this winter, I will be hitting the drag strip at Sears Point whenever weather allows and annoying my nieghbors more.

[71ChallengeHer]

In the next couple weeks..... Putting a Holley on it. And a new tranny pan. I have other stuff to do but I have to take care of some stuff on my and Shelby's daily drivers 1st. We did get a gas tank, sending unit, heater core and  heater box for the Super Coupe.

[Blown70]

   Have to options the 70 or the 69, and not sure just yet... But the nice set of INDY Sr. head will be showing up soon.....

[bull]

My winter plans are to continue working on it.
