Hummm. Let's see, the 92 MN-12 Tbird is looking poorly.

Got the tranny leak fixed so it's off the list.

1.  Replace everything on the front suspension.

2.  Replace the headlineer

3.  Recover the visors

4.  New wheels and tires

5.  Make the fog lights work again

6.  Figure out how to install sequential turn signals.  Now that's a project.

My funds are always low haha. I always find something "I have to have". Now that I've got some of the 5-lug stuff purchased and getting my exhaust finished, maybe this bad boy will see some road time soon. I hate keeping it cooped up. Even if it is sitting next to my Dad's '70 Chevelle.

They've got a universal kit you could install with the rear runnin lights possibly, and just have 2 signals instead of the three, im thinkin of doin that with the cougar.
Remember, if the women dont find you handsome, they should at least find you handy.

When all else fails, get a bigger hammer.

The rear "trunk" lights on the MN-12's are LEDs in a strip of 12 or so.  I'd have to figure out how to install something else.  That part is a "dream'' of mine since the right side doesn't work.

You could still make the L.E.Ds work sequential. Just takes some time to wire it in, and know resistor values. It would take changing the strips into 3 seperate strips per side. Do-able, but time consuming.

Figured I would give a little update...

We are now in Lenoir City, TN, and the new house needs a few things.

1) Have a French Drain installed down the front of the house (I have less invested in my TC than this little project will cost!)

2) Finish repairing the house wiring and installing the sockets and switches.

3) Paint the guest bedroom (it is currently a horrid shade of pink).

4) Find the garage. I know it's under all of the boxes somewhere...

5) Once the garage has been found, install the air conditioning.

6) Start my business.

7) Work on my 442.

Well, the French drain is in, and they will be finishing the walk today or tomorrow.

The A/C is installed in the garage, though the inside of the garage hasn't exactly been "found". The storage area in the garage attic has been set up with nice shelves and is in the process of being organized.

A new one on the list will be to sell off all my TC stuff since the car is totaled. Worse, the rebuilt turbo blew a seal in Maryland, and so it is sitting all smelly from oil smoke in my sister's yard.

If the buy-back isn't too crazy, I'll be parting it out, but if it is I'll only be selling a few choice items... sigh

Well for me and my family. We got a few things to get done now that winter is here. One is get a fuse box for our lincoln. Get three new tires for the cougar. Put stereo in it as well (hidden). Do some engine mods like valve covers, pulley kits, exhaust, rims. New chrome powered antenna for the lincoln since someone broke it. Get ready for trip to texas this year. Even thinking of moving back but to galveston. So anyone on here from that area give me a shout out

Must Do:

Valve cover gaskets, thermostat, and belt for the grey Mark VII.  This will wait till spring as my garage isn't heated, but I really need to get this stuff done next year.

Finish painting the S10.  I started my second roller paint job last summer and I didn't finish before the weather turned.  I miss my old truck!

Figure out my alignment / front end issue on the Cougar.

Sell my 1979 Malibu.  I shouldn't be allowed to make impulse purchases.

Should Do:

Install struts on the black Mark VII and fix antenna.

Want to Do:

Install a tach on the Cougar.

Find a 1988 Sport to buy.
