My current list is:
1) Celebrity by Ovation SuperStrat. Finish refurbishing what was the first decent guitar (and the second ever) I bought. All pickups, electrics and trem were KMD branded and were shot to hell and needed replacing. None of it was a standard size and there has been a lot of routing. All that's left now is to do a bit more routing as after fitting the brass block to the new Floyd I needed a deeper block on, I found as it is thicker as well it needs a bit more space than currently allowed for.
2) Axl Tiger Pro that my drummer has lent me. Needs some new locking nut screws and some straplocks in the short term. Possible longer term upgrades may include a new set of pickups and a replacement Floyd as I suspect the Speedloader currently on there is on the way out. That'll depend on whether he wants to pay for it or if I end up buying the guitar off him.

3) Partsocaster. Still deciding on a few things and need to free the funds for the remaining bits. Mock up of it here: http://markweinguitarlessons.com/forums/threads/mock-up-of-my-next-partscaster.62280/
4) Yamaha 402S (as seen in Partsocaster thread). Needs a new set of pickups as the originals have gone microphonic. Currently looking at a set of Tonerider Hot Classics when funds are available.
5) Alesis Quadreverb GT. My faithful old rack effects unit has a dying screen. Found a supplier on ebay for £25 approx or may bite the bullet and do it myself as the parts are somewhere in the £5 to £10 range. Depends on whether I can I afford the time or the money when I get to this.
What's on your bench/to do list?
