For me a suspension overhaul is in order. Working on getting the bushings lined up and planning on cleaning and painting everything as it goes back together.

What's everyone doing for the winter? Any big undertakings for your Z's or other cars? I'm planning on cleaning up my engine bay and working on my leaky manifolds and may even play with some SU carbs. I still need to do some wiring for my lights as well. What's everyone up to? |

I have 2 timing belt projects due (along with associated adders like water pumps, plugs, wires etc) to do on my 87 NA and 91 TT.  I have recently received all the parts needed (assuming I figured out all I needed  ... With help from Billy B at Courtesy  ) so may not have many more excuses once a few house needs and winter preps have been dealt with.  Since they will be effectively winter projects I may also first do some added insulation along with more wiring for some heaters bought last spring.  Guess we'll ZZZ?!

You just reminded me that I want to check out the timing on my car. I tried looking into it last year but never figured it out. I'll have to do some more research and take another stab at it. What do you guys do to winterize your cars? Do you just blow out the fuel lines and put it on jack stands? |

Mine gets covered and goes in the garage, my Toyota Truck stays outside for the winter. I will start it every few weeks during the winter. |
