Sooooooooo...

What do you have in store for upgrades for 2014?

Oscar is getting a new clutch setup, and a change in exhaust note before March so I have time to break the clutch in before things start up. Beekcake has some great pricing on Exedy Clutch packages. Ordering that December 1. Finishline Performance will put th e clutch package in come March so I can break it in before the warm months start rolling around.

Once past the 500 mile break in it will be time for a tune anda trip to the track for 2014...oh yeah, the relocation brackets for the LCA's need to go on as well. Forgot about those.

Ive completely lost interest in my car. Ive drove it twice in the last three months. It needs a little paint work from the hack job of a fender roll my buddy did on it and I plan to shoot the hood and front bumper because of some rock chips. Once thats done I want to clear bra it then not put another dime in it.

New suspension, new intake, new cams, new headers, 3" exhaust, new rear end, roll bar, and either the Accell Gen 7 I have already or a Holley Dominator setup.

Well either that or part it out and buy a new GT500.

A professional hack job! Makes me sick to look at it. Most people would never notice unless I point it out but its the first thing I see every time I look at the car.

New clutch, some more suspension work. Cage is up in the air as of now, hate to do it to a '12! Or might sell the car and pick up a '14 auto.

60x100x16 building built behind the house so I can actually mess with my junk and not have it all scattered all over the county. Maybe then I will take an interest in working on them and driving them again.

Good luck. Don't try Lebanon Ford. They havea great service department but their used car buyer is a low balling prick. Trust me I found out this week. Tried to work a deal with Charlie and the used car buyer squashed the deal. So Charlie lost two deals because I was also going to trade the wife's car on a 2010 Linccon they had there. Told him I wouldn't waste the time to be insulted a second time.

GREAT FREAKING SERVICE DEPARTMENT THOUGH, AND CHARLIE IS A STAND UP GREAT GUY!!!!

In the process of having a set of 20" Roush rims done for me and I need to tear into my motor and find a nasty tick that I picked up after last the last time I drove it. Also plan on removing my hood scoop and applying a wrap. Looking forward to spring already!

96... forged Teksid block, T45 Source rebuild and new interior, maybe some seats... then starting on the rear end and suspension.

95... Tune up, snow tires and a new tune. Gears and shift kit sometime next year.

My plans are to finish the 85 up and get it ready to run next year. Ive got everything to put it together now except for the wastegate and blow off valve. It might be getting some fresh paint also.

The Cobra is getting a supercharger upgrade and maybe an Auto. Thinking a 4R70. I know the clutch didn't like the drag radials last time out so it will need to be addressed soon.

I need to uphold my end of the deal and get your parts so you can install the s/c

Pull the s/c, reseal the inlet manifold, and get it tuned. If things work out well, then I'd like to swap rear axles with a local guy that has 3.27 gears.

The Mach1...nada.

The F150, cold air intake, tuner and FX2 headlights (the ones that should be standard).

The Sportster, new front fender and complete color change.

Getting a new cozy garage for it IF I keep it and if I do keep it, replacing the junk trans I bought. Then finish installing my wideband and other gauges and getting a final tune on it.

Adam at S&M may have a good T56 for it out of an 03 Cobra if ti hasn't sold yet.

I don't have t56 money and wont anytime soon with buying a house and all. It'll more than likely get the old t45 rebuilt or just another t45.

Get the bike 100% ready for the spring and maybe do a bazzaz zfi with quick shifter.

Those quick shifters are so badass. I had one on my 09 Repsol. Unfortunately Bazzaz dont make one for a bike as old as I have now

blue car just got a glide, we'll be doing 2 different blowers for next year, 1 smaller, 1 bigger, the smaller for coyote modified in nmra. and the bigger to go after some 7's next year.

the red car will stay as is, probably run her in the super stang class until the new body comes out then pick one up to work on new parts and testing for the s550 chassis

I'll probably end up selling my car too early next year after I get some more seat time in it. I want to at least have a little more fun in it. Winter screwed me

My 05 GT is getting prepped to list in the spring. It doesn't need much, but a couple little things to make it perfect for the next owner.

They are sweet. Walter has one on his 10R and the difference is HUGE. It just seems like the bike is in the next gear like RIGHT NOW with a QS.

Hoping to get my Lincoln mostly back together so I can actually enjoy it for the first time like 4 years. Then, maybe a tune in the spring. Hoping for 13's out of this boat.

Doing a very large standalone trans cooler, Turbochuck motor mounts, Energy suspension trans mount, 03-04 Cobra exhaust manifolds, EGR delete, Full 2.5" Mandrel exhaust w/ double X pipes, magnaflows, underdrive pullies, Coil over plug conversion, new powdercoated oil pan and gasket, oil filter adapter gasket, timing cover/cam cover gaskets, 2nd gen door mirror swap and wire up the puddle lights, Steering shaft mods to clear cobra manifolds, and a bunch of other little shit. It already has a mag-hytech trans pan, 3500 stall, and 4.10 gear.

Hoping to also get my '88 back on the ground this year too. If I can ever find the time and energy to go out in the cold and weld up the torque box reinforcement plates.

My winter plans are to find something else to drive for the winter. The blazer went down again and left me stranded. I almost killed my self driving the Cobra to work at 4am during the last big snow. I know, Im stupid for driving it but I didn't have a choice. Maybe I should throw 2 of the little spare tires on the back of it and drive it like that. Lol

Of course we are talking about 250rwhp vs 600rwhp....
