I plan to jack the wheels from that Miura and keep them for future use.

I'm debating buying a new one. Other than that... There's a track about twenty minutes away, so I'll probably watch some stuff.
...
Holy fuck, that Miura.

Well, I'm planning to sell my condo and get into a more spacious house by the end of the year, with space for multiple vehicles.
I was planning to get a truck or suv beater, but my dad has a Honda Ridgeline he will be using sparingly from now on, my brother and I can get the keys whenever we need it. So that means I just have to think about getting a fuel efficient DD, and a fun RWD weekend car. The Golf R will find a new owner at that point.
I'm tempted by various combinations.
Right now it's Golf TDI + Alfa GTV or E28 M5..

Not car but still vehicle related. I plan on getting my motorcycle endorsement in July. Still undecided on what will be my first bike.

Road trips! And try not to get bored with my car.

my Stupidru rubs my 225/50/16 tires under load, so I want to redo the suspension, get some better end links in the rear, and go to at least one AutoX before the summer ends
sm70- why not Duesenberg?

Break the new car in with a few road trips. Colorado, maybe the Southwest, Louisiana, Minneapolis. Hopefully I'll make it to a C&C event in one of those places.

A HPDE course at Willow Springs, BigSocalEuro in August and maybe, just MAYBE a fun, inexpensive second car. (miata or similar.) other than that, lots of sunny PCH and canyon cruising

Just a couple of things:
1. Fix all the little things wrong with the Jag (aircon, central locking, front shocks, fuel gauge and a little rust)
2. Fix all the little things wrong with the Alfa (suspension bushes and blowing exhaust manifold)
3. Make some decent progress on the Spitfire (get chassis treated, paint it and hopefully get the suspension built at least)
4. Get the Lada at least moving (needs a new front diff)
5. Sell my grandpa's Honda Stream
6. Strip the old Jag and Fiat for parts
7. Build a garage!
Just a couple...

Drive! So long as I can afford to do so (student). Many adventures/road trips shall be had.
In fact, having replaced my sway bushings and brake pads over the weekend has only excited myself further for the many miles to be traveled this summer.

Buy my first car (not just borrowed from my parents)...technically I own a car, but I consider it my fiance's. I have been able to get by the last few years with just a motorcycle having lived in Arizona, but since we moved back to Wisconsin, it's probably time to have 2 cars. Unfortunately it will probably just be a cheap truck for now since we need to save money for the wedding (man she has expensive taste and all I can think about is we could buy 2 nice cars for what we are spending on this wedding)

1. Buy new tires (this is happening in a week) - Continental Extreme Contact DWs, I think.
2. Fix the headliner. It's not hard but it requires me to take the top off for 24 hours or so.
3. Get the cigarette lighter out from under my cup-holder door...I don't like pieces being misplaced in my car!
4. Replace vacuum lines. The ones I have work, but are old and crusty with micro-leaks and cause slight idle fluctuations. Easy peezy.
5. HEATER CORE! I AM SO EXCITED THAT I MIGHT JUST KILL MYSELF!

Great Odin's raven, you have a fun frustration filled summer. I don't think I could make it past #2. It's a bold stratagy to start with fixing a Jag, then an Alfa, then an old Brit.

Nothing wrong with a truck. My first car/vehicle was a 2000 Tacoma TRD. Fantastic machine. Congratulations in advance for the wedding.

I need to do #4, but I have bilsteins ranked a bit higher on the parts list. I wish you luck with the heater core. You might just kill yourself.

Fantastic. Nothing better that summer driving. And the struggle is real, driving on a student budget can be tough.

Why not the whole car. From what I heard, Adam Carolla doesn't even drive most of his cars.

*Car came with Bilsteins from the factory trololololo* :p
The leak is super tiny and I might just say "fuck it" and throw in some StopLeak. Also, Bilsteins are always a great investment. They last forever .

what will they be driving? I will keep an eye out. Tell them to look for the blue Evo. I can't imagine there will be too many.

I don't know. He's tagging along with another friend and I don't know what he drives. But, I can tell you this guy has a nice collection. 67 C2 427 coupe, Mach 1, and a 1963 Galaxie with a quite special motor. 427 SOHC Nascar motor with dual carbs rated for 650hp. His is stroked out to over 450ci.

Yeah, I've got my work cut out :S should be fun though
I'd like to at least get the first 3 done, although the Spitfire's money-limited. That and the garage, which we'll be starting on part of this week.

Can now add: fix engine knock so car can run on 87 octane again, by cleaning throttle bodies, intake manifold and injectors.
