Your list is crazy.

'66 F100 - ignore and let rust in the field for another year
'65 Mustang - ignore and let rust in the barn for another year
'90 Civic - clean up and sell
'93 325i - clean up and sell
X3Z '93 coupe, rebuilt stock internal 302, ProM 80 MAF, 75 TB, Victor 5.0, Stage 3 High Ports, 30# inj., 255 pump, B303, 1.6s, Tremec 3550-2, 3.73s, full exhaust, Moates QH/BE/EA

Howdy,

Factory Five Racing Spyder GT: finish tuning engine, finish bodywork & paint, finish assembling car.

'95 GT Vert: killed by a deer. Will rebuild after Spyder is finished.

'97 T-bird V-8: killed by ex-wife ( she wrecked it twice ). Need to pull engine, trans, ecu, etc. send rest to scrap yard.

'97 F-150 Stepside: after +354K miles the engine died. Need to pull the V-6 and install V-8 from T-bird.

Those are my projects.

Alright, I'll play along

'94 Mustang: MM steering shaft, MM CC plates, relocate battery, remove top raise/lower apparatus, [hopefully] 17x11 CCWs, maybe get the 408 short block back, maybe buy heads
'97 SHO: Do alignment, put interior back together, put rocker moldings back on, [hopefully] drive for the first time since 2012
'98 Ranger: Put original transmission back together and reinstall, new front shocks, maybe pull the engine and freshen up (327k miles)
'09 Jetta TDI: [hopefully] a 2microntech fuel feed/filter system
'04 SuperDuty PowerStroke: Have rotted rear wheel arches replaced, Aeroforce Inteceptor gauge

Okay, that's all I got.
