Is it speed, handling, looks, fuel economy, creature comforts, amazing power, or just doing something completely different?

What is your personal mind set?


You have decided that you absolutely have got to have...

WHAT?

 

Most of the time, the projects pick me.
I show up some where, and BOOM. it follows me home

 

I'm with Charlie. They just kinda find me.......

 

I kinda know the feeling - the MX3 was like that, I wasn't going to touch it because I didn't want to get distracted but the price was one of those one time deals...

 

guilty

 

I have The Queen and three daughters... all with wild imaginations...'nuff said. If we ain't building it in my machine shop, I am building them in my garage.

.

 

Lately I have been thinking of ripping the 351W out of the Ranger and figuring out how to slide it into the MX3

~ I also wondered if the 2.3L original Ranger engine would fit in a Festiva somehow...
(quite possibly with a bore and stroke job)

 

used to be all about speed, than comfort, than mpg's after a 05 f250 with a V10.

 

pretty much the same here. i do not pick projects, they pick me.

 

DITO here, c are to come and help do a clutch job on a 34 with me?

 

I would love too Charlie, but I'm healing from my shoulder surgery right now....
Put it on hold, I'll help later....

 

and i am going in for a shoulder rebuild in two weeks.
rite now i can not move my right arm without the red hot icepick going in my elbow and running halfway down my side.

 

Don't think surgery is going to stop be from sticking red hot ice picks in yer arm when yer not lookin

 

keep it up and i will train the rottweiler to bite you .

 

For me, projects are Maintenance, Longevity, and Looks, in that order. I knew deleting my 08 would help it last longer, but installing a 600hp tune would not. Right now my 08 needs tires on the rear, and I'm going to have to spend money I don't have to get them.
