Default What have you done this year?

Well Im just about done for this year I know there is 3 more months but Ive spent all I want to spend this year.
-I have added a 2800 stall, vette servo to the trans
-gutted the cats,flowtech cutouts and bought the TPS tune (a waste).
-373 w/ locker
-spring clamps
-katzskin leather seat covers.
-10" mtx speakers and sub box
- and I just ordered a wait4me 93 octane tune and a transcooler
- the only other item I am going to purchase is DR tires for the track

Gauges, stainless billet grill, servos, tune, volant, Line X'd the bed (under rails), tinted driver / pass side windows, installed iPod controller to stock radio. Shift kit is sitting on the garage floor waiting to go in.

Next year its 2/4 drop and I am done with this rig all together and on to my Chevelle where my heart really lies. Just building a nice running rig that once I am done I do not have to keep toying with. Just want to drive it, haul my dogs and parts for the Chevelle.

18s, built 4L60e with shift kit and vette servo, grille, LS1 fans, Pacesetters and y-pipe. Those were some of the big things for this year. Also spent entirely too much money on my truck yet at the same time not enough.
