Default What are YOU doing this weekend?

Just got my:

Ashtray delete
Front hood shocks
Rear deck shocks

Not quite as sexy as replacing my AOS but hey...it's a start. Do you think I will need to rent a hammer?.

Those projects sound fun. I just installed aluminum pedals today, polished my headlights, and fixed a Velcro strip on the cab top (inside cabin). Suns coming out tomorrow through Sunday and I will be riding with the top down. I plan to do some shopping for a replacement head unit, amp, et al for my car over the weekend.

Thinking short shifter in the next week. Might go ahead and address the IMS working RAC Performance. More on than later.

LED DRL's, if they are delivered as expected. Will clean the radiators at the same time.

Update: Damn! FedEx left a note that they tried to deliver the package. I was home the whole time, so the guy couldn't have tried too hard. Will have to wait until next week.

I'm planning some fly fishing on Saturday. The warm weather has been nice... hopefully I'll catch a few trout...

On the Porsche front, nothing more than a nice washing. The first Sonic Drive In Night of the year is Friday night, so I'll probably head out to that. I may go to the auto show in Denver on Sunday.

Just unboxed the GoPro camera last night so, playing with that down some of my favorite roads I reckon.

Should be in the mid 50's. I think I'm heading over to the car wash for the first rinse of the spring.

I wish I could put my summer tires on. I have roughly 6 weeks to go before I can do that, and there's a brand new set of PS2s mounted on my summer wheels taunting me in my garage.
