    I guess now they would be called Late Winter Projects.
    With the wedding, and catching up, I have been extremely busy
    since the Fall. In fact, I have not driven the GT since the first of
    October when Tim, Rhonda, my Dad and I attended the Mustang
    and Ford Powered Show the first of Oct. I had some fuel filter
    clogging issues and decided at that moment to park it until I
    did the gas tank swap that Dennis diagramed for us.
    Well, the tank has been sitting in the box behind my desk here at
    the office since early Nov.

    So, here is my Winter Project list:

    1. Swap the gas tank
    2. Get the mechanical temp gauge working
    3. Get lights added to the gauges.

    Is it winter already?? For the first time in many many winters I have put all car projects on hold as I just cant even keep up with the demands of my job right now. Shoot, I seldom have time to harass anyone here.
