Default Working on your Chevy?

How many of you folks working on your car this weekend?
I sure am- weather promises to be nice and i cant wait. Problem is, there's still quite a bit to do, not sure what to hit next. Really helps motivation though, that I can see the light at the end of the tunnel!

Well bud I kinda got strated today. It rained like the dickens and cooled it off some this afternoon so i went out in the garage. Boy what a mess. I just dropped tools and went inside about two months ago. The spiders had everything webbed up so I did a bunch of cleaning sweeping and putting tools away. Now the shops picked up so I'm guessing I'll be dragging all that crap back out this weekend to finish up my floor pan (hopefully). I get that feeling of not knowing were to go when I finish a large piece of the car. Everytime I get a goal done I seem to be cornfused for a day or two as too were to go next. Good luck with your endeavors this weekend.

Well when your retired you run into the same problems every day. Do I want to do wiring today??? How about finishing up the door locks. The tailgate could use a few hours to put together. Rear bumper isn't on right . Headliner and windlace. Man its time for a nap I'll come back after lunch.

Hi Guys
Oh were do I begin tomorrow morn at 7:30 I am rolling out a 41 Willys that we just built a chassis for and in return the customer is dropping off an
AC Cobra for a chassis, the Desoto leaves for exhaust at 10:00 and heads back to customers home garage after a year and a half build. At noon I have to run Toby to the vets for his shots and check up. At 2:30 pick up steel tube for 33 Willys inner structure. Oh wait did you mean my personal project AT the end of the day I will be gathering parts and decide which truck to take to the All Truck Nats that we leave Thursday for and return to the shop Monday mor to reload the trailer for the Bloom Nats .... Ya know winter is looking pretty good right now I might pull my truck in and start on it......

Well it won't be the weekend. But I do have next week off again and my plan is to put the gas tank and sending unit in the 57. Plus I have to do the brakes on my wifes car, which is a higher priority. ( At least thats what Im telling her)
