    well i dunno about x-mas but most of my upcoming 'presents' for the cars will arrive in the spring. my '71 is getting a new engine and EFI, my red '72 is getting a new paint job, interior and driveline,... and my '73 4dr will be getting painted. i may start on the '71 before spring so that it's close to being done by March for some of the shows :)

    New carb and distributer! Don't really like the stuff the shop put on it, but it is mostly me....the car seems to run ok. Also, if possible.....new headliner and glass gaskets!

    Mine will get moved closer to the wall in the garage, and more out of the way, and maybe another quart of trans fluid.

    Not comfortable driving it until I get that trans leak fixed and/or trans rebuilt...:(
