What are you going to do all winter?

[my73charger]

Myself,

Plan on replacing a my tranny with a sturdy built one.  Plan on doing some front end work.  A little tuning.  Save up for my aluminum heads.  Maybe some snowmobile fun.  Maybe some sleding.  Probably lots of Play Station 2.....

If I do anything in the garage, it'll be to get the Scamp & the Road Runner finished. I need to drop off the 8-3/4" rear I have for the Scamp to get it checked out so I can swap out the lowly 7-1/4" that's been making noise. The 4 speed for the RR will go to the same shop to make sure it's okay before I go through all the trouble of installing it. There's more, but that's the 2 biggest obstacles. I wouldn't mind having some heat in there though.

Other than cars, I'll build a snowman with my daughter. She'll want to make a snowcat intead, so after that I'll wait until she goes to bed & put some feathers in it's mouth & tell her it's been catching the birds going to the feeder.

I am finishing up my old boat that I was redid the floor last year.   I did the interior so nice that I don't like the exterior any more. It's in decent shape but it needs some cracks fixed.

Here are some pics from the day I bought it: Interior is different now and I bought a new trailer.

I wish I had a garage   So even though I have lots to do, there's no way in hell in I'm lying out in this 5 degree weather and working on the Charger. So as usual, I'll be couped up in the house all winter now that I'm layed of till spring

[NHCharger]

So much to do, so little money.
My 71 Charger goes to the shop for paint tommorrow. I'll have it back in February.
On my 72 Charger I'm going to change the water pump and do some misc. items. May get the back bumper re-chromed depending on funding. I'll putter on the 71 when I get it back, will be April 07 before it gets back on the road.
This all depends on how my right elbow heals, Doc said 2 more weeks before I can do any carpentry work, he told me to stop turning wrenches also .

Right now I'm downstairs messing with my electronics bench.
I'm going to try to get some work done on the house and when it's not so cold out I'd like to get out and try to work on the car although it's looking like about August for that  the way things are going.

Also counting down the days until I go to Vegas and escape the cold and inversion for a while.

Me too!

Actually, I'm finishing a couple rooms downstairs...our house had an unfinished basement. We slapped up sheetrock a while ago, now it's time to mud...messy job.
I discovered yesterday that mud isn't too tough to apply to the walls, but the ceiling is a whole 'nuther matter...there's no guarantees on how it's gonna look when I'm done.
I think I ended up wearing as much mud as the small section of the ceiling I worked on.

[4402tuff4u]

That's one thing I hate to do - spackling! I'll do any other type of work but spackle. I dont have the patience for it. Good luck CF!

[ChgrSteve67]

I'm going to work on saving up more money to spend on the Charger next Summer.

I do have a few things to mess with if I start having withdrawls but until next year she will sit in the garage tucked away under the car cover.

I'm hoping a rough texture will hide my mudding & taping boo-boo's.

Just finished putting a new 3rd member in my 3.55 rear end, and yeah!!! the whine is finally gone. Upgraded my factory A/C with new compressor, drier, hoses and clamps. Next pull the dash and send it in for new plastic chrome around the guages, install new woodgrain kit and send the wood grain steering wheel in for refurbishment. And hopefully find a stereo shop that can get my 8 track to work. The Am radio part of it does work.

[greenpigs]

Pay off a few bills and start saving for a house..again. Getting a house with at least a two garage is the priority now. I've had my charger going on 16 years so 6 months isn't long to wait.

Hey Charger Fan,

If you're going to do a lot of sanding, (Like me, since I'm not good at spackling) you may want to try one of these to cut back on the dust mess. It goes between a shop vac & the sanding & the water catches the dust before it gets to the shop vac. The water almost looks like a white milk shake, but don't drink it.

I bought one when I had a lot of drywall to do & it works good. Just make sure the hose connections don't come apart. I was sanding inside a new walk in closet, & when there was no more suction I figured the hose came off. It did, but the bedroom had this thick, white, dust fog. It was friggen' great, I had a nice, dust free closet, but it took me 3 hours to clean the bedroom I didn't want a mess in.

Ya know...that sounds exactly like something that would happen to me. 

Thanks for the idea though, it sounds pretty good & not too expensive either. I wasn't looking forward to having the whole basement covered in dust...not to mention the rest that will be tracked upstairs.
