I know it's summer and we should be playing with our toys and cooking meat over an open flame but is anybody doing any fun mods/projects?

I can truly say, this is the first year I don't *have* to do anything, as in I can just drive my cars since they are pretty much 'complete'... For the past 5-6 years that wasn't always the case as the T/A was always in some state of change...

Even though, I do have a 383 engine upgrade planned for the Camaro, and in regards to what has already been accomplished since March, there is aquiring the Camaro Z28 convertible, redoing all the brakes, new suspension, new wheels/tires, new clutch, the interior, the electrical, adding a complete stereo system (3 amplifiers, flip-out DVD headunit, USB playback, integrated vehicle performance display), etc... Next thing is custom sub boxes in the back once the new subs come in (since someplace never got back to me with a quote on doing the boxes for me :confused , I decided to tackle 'glassing in my own)...

Other than that, there is always the numerous projects for other people I get involved in, such as tuning, motor builds, stereos, etc... Plenty to keep me busy, as if 4 kids, all 10 and younger, isn't enough... :thumbsup

* still acquiring parts to complete my rearend build/upgrade. Converting the car to a 4-link. Need various pieces still like adjustable upper control arms and mounting brackets. The chunk is almost ready to go together however which is positive. Hope to have chunk together sooner than later and possibly in the car yet this year...if even not converted to the 4-link yet.

* started scouring for 44 year old GM 4-speed parts. I have all of the linkage, pedals etc in my possession. ALL factory GM stuff which I thought wasn't going to be easy. Hope to gather the rest of the 4-speed conversion stuff I need (clutch, flywheel, trans, front driveshaft) this winter so maybe I'm rowing in the spring.

* started restoring a front grille that I got at Iola. I have all the dents hammered out, just need to start cleaning and polishing. It won't be a "perfect" grille but it'll be nice.

Did agree to buy a new rear...will probably pick it up this week. 8 3/4 w/ 3:91's and sure-grip differential! Should let the tired teen act like a fresher 360, lol.

Hopefully I'll be picking up an 2003 5.4 DOHC Navigator engine very soon. It'll be a LONG build time since we just bought a house and I'm getting married in 4 months.

Is it gray(or primer)? I saw one this weekend with a girl driving it. Thought maybe it was yours.

this summer is so fricken busy between work, the fire department, and having a little one around now. in the mass confusion we are trying to put a 600 square foot addition on our house, but due to the general contractor being a dope, that is not working out so good right now. might have to wait till next year.
