'68 vert:
Install the AOD that has been collecting dust for 3 years now.
Swap the tired motor for the hand-me-down from the fastback.
Unclog the freakin' radiator so I can drive the car further than the grocery store.
Take care of the dent in the driver door and the scratch on the rear quarter panel.
'68 fastback:
Cowl
Fenders (If I don't install them on the car, I should probably get them out of the living room before I start using them as furniture.)
Get rid of the rust in the doors
Paint
I'm thinkin' there's a better chance I'll keep my resolution on the vert than the fastback. My #1 priority is keeping the cars running and driving. So what if the fastback's getting ugly.

To keep working at it without stalling
Now that i got it on the rotiserie and every bolt on part removed. frame rails are first
then complete floor pan.
after that firewall and cowl.
then I will move to the back with full rear quarters and wheel houses.
of course that will take alot more than this year.

No more new projects for 2008...... Mustang or otherwise, I already have at least 2 projects for 2008...not counting an oldproject still to be finished. 
But,,, on the bright side, I am basicly done with the 66,, just a few loose ends to tie up when it gets back from paint.... unless something breaks..
