Any other projects in your garage?

Just was wondering what other projects are out sleeping in the shadows. This is my Nova that I finished 1 1/2 years ago. I am the 2nd owner and got it from a 96 yr old lady. Was yellow and very slow when I got it. I changed everything even though it was in great shape.

Re: Any other projects in your garage?

66 Sunbeam Minx. It'll get a 60 degree V6 (probably a Caddy CTS 3.6) when the current 1725 I4 is ready for rebuild. It weighs 2100 lbs and to give an idea of size; those are 13" wheels:

Thumbs up Re: Any other projects in your garage?

These aren't mine, but I eventually wind up wrenching on them:

My dad's 53:



Don't laugh, it runs, sorta... and it's tagged...


dad's '47 series 60 cushman pacemaker motor scooter:



The suzuki is cool also, but it belongs to a friend of mine. The three of us got the scooter running again that day.


More pics and info., if interested...

Re: Any other projects in your garage?

I tinker with my '76 SS every chance I get. It's slow going right now because of $$ but hope to have body work and paint done and cruzin' the car show's next summer. Not many people like the 4 gen's but I love them! It will be Hugger Orange with the factory white big'n'little stripe along the bottom. And I just bought my new beach truck ('80 Scottsdale) with a 4-speed and 205 T-case. Don't plan on doing much with it but driving. (Yeah right)

Re: Any other projects in your garage?

I drive the heck out of my '62, but I always have something else planned for it.. Heck, it's a project in itself keeping a 46 year old truck going.. Other than that, as most of you on the board know, I'm building my lady's '65 Shortbed/fleet and my '73 Cheyenne Super Shortbed/fleet... as time and money permits... One day I want to start on an old car...preferrably a tri-five Bel Air.

Here's some pics...

This is my 1995 Camaro. I bought it a year ago to build a turbo charged street car.
