Too cold to work on the car during winter for me.

I'm just going to hate the car until spring.

You better have some plans for spring then!
yep. this year i plan on tackling a majority of my projects during spring break. as of now i plan on doing some suspension work and also plan on getting a few supporting mods out of the way. im sure we can agree that supporting mods are no fun.

Agreed!

Supporting mods are boring, but necessary.

This winter I hope to keep my car clean and add the goodies that I asked for for Christmas.



Happy modding to all!

Winter plans equal new wheels and tires...hopefully. And then tax refund time i hope to be getting bilstein hd shocks and struts and selling the strange shocks/struts i have now as i am going in a different direction with my car now. But all in all, cant really afford to do much this winter. Maybe next winter...and now that boduke brought up mustang week...i unfortunately will not be able to go again this year due to studying abroad in the fall next year but should be a fun time there...but no mustangs...which is the saddest part.

The car spends most of the winter in an unheated garage. I'll go out and take a look at it quite often, but too cold most of the time to do much else.

No, I'll be counting the days till spring, when it becomes a normal option to drive again. I hate the winter and the snow. I think I stopped liking snow when I began shoveling it and driving in it. Also, the large amounts of salt they throw down on the roads in my area are lethal to cars.

This is about as close as my Mach 1 will get to snow this winter.

I will be changing the intake and injectors over the winter. Im lucky that I have a three gar heated garage with a lift that she spends the winter in. Other than that it will be waiting for the nice weather.

Ya I started hating snow when I had to start driving in it. Every since then I have decided that when I graduate college in moving west where people don't know what rust on cars is.
