fix my power door locks and put in a keyless entry system.
new floor mats

RE: what winter mods do you have planned?

RE: what winter mods do you have planned?

matt you going with a spool and 33spline?

RE: what winter mods do you have planned?
 

New suspension. My springs are over 40 years old now, and though it does ok with the traction bars, if I try to leave hard it'll still get mad wheel hop if I'm not careful. It's just plain wore out, so some newer springs should help in the 60' dept. big time. And gears if I can find the money for that as well, prolly 3.40's since I have no overdrive and do a lot of highway driving.

RE: what winter mods do you have planned?
 

well im hoping it will play out like this, start the bbf get some heads intake and the block, and buy a cheap gt40 top end kit for the 5.0. but we will c how it pans out.
