Tax Return

I have no idea what i want to do with my tax return. I have a couple of options.

1. Get all the body work done on my car, and i mean all of it, quarters, firewall, rocker panels, front clip, backend. Absolutly everything straight and rust free.

2. More hardware for the car. 700r4, new rear end/axels, disc brakes, headers, water and oil pump, crank, heads, pistons, cam. Then repaint the engine.

3.Buy an everyday driver and then save for such projects, that way i have something to drive while the 67 is in the shop.

Any ideas???

All three sound good to me, i just can't choose as far as #1 priority.

if you can finish the car with the new hardware, go for that, if not, daily driver, the body work can always be finished later, seeing as you can drive it without it being done. You must've gotten quite a bit of money back!

#3 would be the most practical, I'd say.

Haha i actually think i might get a truck, even if i do buy an import that dosen't nullify the fact i drive a first gen camaro!

I still have no idea what im going to do, i am leaning towards just buy an everyday, and then using whats left with that money on the other two.
