Let's hear your mod plans for spring/summer '05

[DavidOS]

still collecting turbo parts for the ZE, in the same boat as gro and babyblue essentially, most of the stuff i have, just needs install....

Thinking of turning manual roll-up windows into power windows. Someone told me it shouldn't be too difficult -- apparently the wires are already in place.

Okay, not much of a mod project, but it's all I have!

[MarkMoore]

well, all the things i wanted to do to my car this spring/summer has gone out the window due to some unforeseen events...

in May i went out and dropped a couple grand on a truck (f150) w/ a snow plow... reason being, i wanted to start my own landscaping business... then i went out and bought another couple grand worth of equipment, and today i was supposed to go out and buy a trailer for $1600..... sooooo, my dwindling funds plus the fact that i have absolutely no time left for anything but work and sleep, means the mx-3 got put on the backburner sadly... but i'll recoup my money quick and all those things i've been wantin' to do to my car WILL GET DONE

oh yea, and my older bro's car broke down and he's in the process of looking to buy another car so he's been borrowing my mx-3 (since i needed my other car and truck) for at least the past month... i guess life takes interesting turns... i thought my whole summer was gonna be consumed w/ me working on my car, but i guess instead i won't even have the time to drive it ... that's assuming i even get the chance to drive it if my bro returns it to me... he must like my car so much that he's dragging his feet in buying a new one so he can hold on to mine longer

anywho, so that's y i've only posted about 5 or 10 times in the last month or so...
