Well, once I finsih the one I got. I am going to find a 1970-1973 RS to build up.

First, I'm going to finish reassembly the '87 Honda CRX I painted this weekend. It was a practice car, I'm teaching myself to paint cars for future projects.

I'm also preparing my '74 Corvette for the AutoRama show on Thanksgiving weekend...not much left to do there, just lot's of detail work to make it as close to perfect as I can get it.

Also continuing on the Suburban...tweaking the timing, little cosmetic upgrades, etc. In about 4-5 years when the engine is getting worn out (~150-200K miles) I'll pull the engine for a high performance rebuild (450-500 HP) and do the paint/body work myself.

Future projects...well, I'd like a '68-'69 GTO, '69 Charger, '70-'73 Firebird, or any one of a long list of muscle cars I want to own someday...

Oh yeah, I almost forgot, I'd like to take a geo metro and drop in the biggest engine I can cram under the hood and covert it to rwd. Just to laugh at people as I smoke them in a metro. I don't know if it would be possible, but it sure would be funny. Heck, even a v6 in there would be crazy

Well, now that my Camaro is almost done, it just needs minor tuning tweaks, I'm hoping I'll get 420 hp down at the rear wheels. I plan on doing a few more things to it this winter such as the LS6 intake, and some poly mounting items, but it's all minor.

The new truck is a project. Once I get around 10k on the motor, it's coming out to be built. 496 cubes is a waste NOT to build. I need it for towing power.

Then another project that I'd like to start at least in small parts is restoring my 1966 Pontiac Catalina 4dr. My goal is to first get the hi compression 389, transmission, axle and braking/suspension back in running shape. I'll worry about the body and interior later, I just want it driveable

1970 Chevy Fleetside. Sitting in Tennessee right now, don't have the money, time or space to put the effort into it that it deserves. Plan on bagging it, 17 inch billets, and a new interior. The list goes on and on, but those are the main pieces right now.

my project car is a 1968 Camaro that i plan on either finding a LS1/6 speed to put in it or i'd like to just put the RamJet 502 in it. Alot of people say "my care is Fire Engine Red" well, mine is "Fire Black"! I bought it from a highschool kid for 500$ the moron tried to hook up a hugely overpowered stereo in it and the old electrical system shorted out and caught on fire. Everything is pretty much shot except the body and frame..new engine is needed and new interior and plastics are also needed.
