Whoa, Bdyman, welcome back!
Anyways, since all the body-work is done, decided on some other things to do.
1. Get the alternator re-built (doing that this week most likely!)
2. Do the final power wiring upgrade for the car. Every wire for the battery/ground etc. is 1AWG, just need to upgrade the alternaot to batter wire. Gonna go with 2AWG since it's only a 108 amp stock alternator.
3. Get new terminals for my battery, the stock ones were stripped (on the nut end where you tighten it) by the previous owner.
4. Re-do the connectors under the electrical box. Things are waaay to old and aren't insulated.
Thats what I want to up-grade this summer. Fall will be tires, and saving through spring will hopefully buy me some 100-spokes

Tighten my suspension and steering up, get it re-painted, re-do the sound system, find a way to squeeze a little bit more horses out of her, and most of all, do SOMETHING about my headliner drooping down on my head ALL THE TIME!!!

Are you talking about your headlner? If so, where did you get it from? I sure could use some of those 'til I get enough money to get it fixed right.

1. Vinyl Top 2. Body work (minor) 3. Recharge A/C 4. Trunk seal 5. Fix power door locks 6. Minor trim parts 7. Find a full set of factory floor mats in good shape/right color
Ok heres an update:
The trunk seal is replaced (Steele Rubber Products is a great source for those with older cars in need of weatherstrip)
About 3 weeks till the vinyl top is replaced, then I need to get working on that body work.

With a little spring in the air, i thought it was time to dust off the old "to do" list.
I never did get around to the vinyl top last year on the Cutlass, but its going in a week from today to the new top, I just left the shop and paid the deposit meaning this year is the year (4 years I've been saying i was going to replace this roof, and 4 years I keep buying new cars or doing other stuff to this one).
Ill post some pics once its done.... at long last, this year the vinyl roof gets crossed off.
