Winter Projects!!

[vetteboy86]

Well it's that time of year again and some of us will be putting our cars up for the winter.
Some of us will continue driving them.

Either way, what kind of projects are lined up for the off driving season? I think I am going to tackle my inoperable antenna (probably bad mast). I'm also going to upgrade the tunes. Open to suggestions. If time allows a deep clean of everything.

I plan on driving the old girl every day, rain or shine, and when I get a chance, working on the interior and get it spiffy. I've already done the doors and now I think I'll take a crack at the seats.

New shocks and new brake pads. Install a MSD 6AL i have in the garage and and a possible spray job. The spray is pending, cant make up my mind on refresh the original or magnetic red II. I also have new injector from "fic" in the garage and finally a good wash inside. When the snow comes its good night for a while due to the salt they use on the roads but she will be on the road from time to time. On the west coast of norway we might have two weeks with snow but a bucket of rain. I also plan on a clean up of the engine bay and polish some supposed to be shiny parts but now dusty

Fall projects and spring projects. No winter projects, it just gets to cold here to try to heat the garage. Would be cheaper to have it done than to pay for heat. About 97k on it now so need to do a front to rear check on anything I can think of.
Need to check the rear wheel bearings,I have the initial click. Check ball joints and alignment.
Replace rear shocks. Repair center counsel latch. Rewire fog lights to ground through a switch or through dim headlights. Work on power seat units,work but seem loose.Check into seat cover repair or replacement.

Don't get me started. I've got too many projects year round. If I get the body and interior of the 84 done by next summer the wife will be thrilled.
