Share your list! Here is mine.

1. TV Cable Replacement
2. Polish wheels
3. Replace Decklid cables
4. Oil Change

This should keep me busy for the first week of spring :D
 
Hmmm... the '93 I bought in December is still stored 800 miles away, (I haven't even seen it yet) but when it finally gets here I think I'll be doing the following:

Change oil
Shop for new tires
Replace some of the weatherstripping
Fix the bracket near the battery (this was described to me only)

Hopefully not much else as the car only has 35,000 miles on it.
 
Remove covers, change oil, rinse, wash, clay bar, polish and drive like hell.:)
 
Get wiring finished.
Install new battery box.
Install steering column and links to rack.
Choose, order and install A/C.
Trim inner fender wells to fit.
Install brake pedal with booster and connect to lines.
Evaluate calipers for rebuild; do it, install and fill system.
Fire up that sweet 383; drive as necessary.

Oh wait. It's Fall, alreadyl! (and this is my Corvette-powered '55 F100 w/Corvette suspension and there's fenders, doors and interior to install. :w
 
1) Wait for snow to melt; hope for nice salt-rinsing rains.

2) Remove original rims (for restoration); put on "spare" set of ready-to-go original-style (now chromed) rims with slick new DS3's.

3) Can you say "detailing" ?? A couple of summers in the garage and LOTS of TLC is in order!

4) Oil Change

5) Reactivate Insurance

6) Fire it up! ( Evaluate the rough WOT 'stumble' issue, repair or have repaired as needed )

7) Drive it like I stole it! :cool
 
1) replace tires with a set of Kumhos from tirerack
2) change oil
3) evaluate shocks and replace if necessary
4) replace Shift Plate Console Bezel
5) change coolant
6) wash & wax
 
- new chrome wheels (using existing tires)
- replace brake pads
- paint calipers
- install Corvette branded caliper covers
- wash, clay, polish, wax, finishing
- remove glass top
- drive

Actually, meeting tomorrow afternoon with my mechanic to go over the plan.

Forgot to mention... installing drilled/slotted rotors too :cool
 
Two new 02 sensors.
New in-line fuel filter.
Try to find and fix a "mystery" leak.
Oil change.
New plugs.
New Bosch III injectors.
Hopefully pass emissions and get my new personalized plates.
Fix a scratch in the drivers rub molding.
Paint / install new front license filler panel.
Wash/clay bar/buff/polish/wax.

........DEEP BREATH and :drink!!!!!

Drive.
