Would you care to define your goals? Yes, I am aware the goals change over time.
Goals / plans.... Probably different meanings but maybe the same thing.
No real goals for the car. It has a proven low 11 second drive train and the only thing that will be changing in that mechanical recipe will be that the original tranny will be going back in the car as I plan to daily drive this one when it's finished and the overdrive is a must.
Plans for the car: After careful examination of the floor, I'm going to replace some areas in 2 maybe 3 of the 4 floors due to some cancer. Going to pull the engine and tranny as well as the bumpers, fillers, side mirrors, emblems, rear spoiler and all the glass. Then it's off to media blast. The car has had a repaint and want to start with fresh metal. There is some cancer on the lower rear quarters and along the bottom of the doors. Going to cut out and repair those spots. Then body work and paint.
On the chassis: new body bushings, rear shock brace, bushings on all the suspension components, diagonal braces up front from the engine cross member to the frame, stock brakes up front with the bigger wheel cylinders on the rear with aluminum drums with two long shoes installed.
Interior: New carpet, still debating on replacing the seat foam but definitely new upholstery. Replacement lower door panels are a must. Going to need to find the shifter parts in all the boxes as well as the linkage to the column for the neutral safety switch and back up lights.
Outside: thinking of the spoolfool fillers... not set on those just yet but they are nice pieces. Line up the header panel with the hood a little better, maybe just needs some shimming. Reinstall the badging. Nothing extra special on the outside.
Engine and engine management: I have a 6262 that I had on my limited that will be going on as well as TH down pipe with internal waste gate. Just some clean up and touch up paint in the engine bay. I've had great success with the ECU-GN from Bob and Eric on the limited so I'll be getting another one of those blue boxes to manage things.
I have the stock wheels, so I will be cleaning those up and going back with those.
That's about all I can think of at this time. I'm sure there will be more little stuff but hey, it's a living-breathing project so things will come up and minds will change.
