Well, here it is again another new year, time to think about all the things we wanted to do last year but for one reason or other didn't get done. Myself, I want to get power steering installed on the Lincoln as well as AC before the summer. Not going to worry with body and paint this year, I still want to pretty much have all the add on stuff buttoned up before I have to start stripping stuff off for bodywork and paint. I figure that way everything will be mounted and I won't be as likely to scratch up new paint installing stuff.
On another front, I'm still up in the air on the Vette. Love the car, but it has given so much trouble and the fact that there is three of us again, it is no longer practical, need something with a backseat. I have it listed on Craigslist, but other than a scam email, no interest at all. Would love to trade it for a 40-48 Ford Tudor sedan, but haven't seen any viable candidates yet that don't require a full rebuild--something I'm not really wanting to do. At least not until the Lincoln is finished, if it ever is...
On the drivers, I plan on just keeping them maintained. I need to replace the rear wiper motor on the Expy and pick up some center caps, other than that, just use them.
I hope the 09 IH I just bought gives good service without too many problems. I lost about 1/3 of my gross income last year due the other truck being in the shop so much, not to mention the repair costs. Only good thing about that is my tax bill should be pretty low this year, might even get some back since I have another dependent![ddd
The farm tractor needs a tire, the lawnmower needs the deck rebuilt, one atv needs brakes and the other needs to go to shop because it won't run.
Everything I own needs a little something, some more than others. Some of it will get done, some won't. You know what they say about the best laid plans.....
So, what do you guys have in store for 2016?[S
