Time for another transmission rebuild clinic, Where???? Options

[Dr Evil]

Rubber boa tried to get a clinic set up in the PNW, but that seemed to fall through. I dont know why, but I am interested to hear any suggestions.

Anyhow, I am open to doing the same thing I did last time; fly to a place, teach a bunch of people how to rebuild their boxes, make some $$ and friends. The thing is, I dont know where. That is where you all come in.

Who wants a transmission clinic in their home town?

I am open to anywhere, but special consideration will be given if there is free lodging and a place to do the work. Those who provide the lodging and work space pay $0. If you have frequent flier miles to help with the ticket that would kick ass as well. Last time Trevor hooked it up. The cost was $300 per person with a gear box last time, free for spectators. $300 got you a rebuilt tranny at the end of the event provided you didnt need any parts. If you need parts, and no one did, you will be able to install them when I am done with you. If I have used parts available then you either get them free or at a serious discount if I have limited quantities. You also get unlimited Q/A with me, all of my tips for how to get it done right, my special tools at your disposal, and supplies for the clinic.

Here is the thread from the last event:

You can see that everyone felt that it was well worth the cost.

So, let the bidding begin!, Where am I going?

...Just found this main thread so (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon_bump.gif)

This is a great opportunity. I've stated that fact in the SoCal threat already so check in there too.

Well worth the cost. Mike does a great job, has tons of parts, and the special tools aka a rubber mallet.

When Mike and I did this, I flew him out and put him up. Feed him and let him drink my beer.

He plays a mean guitar and was a good guest.

As Rob mentioned, the storm sucked and with my car on jack stands for the tail to side swap there was not much room in my two car garage.

What worked:

1. People were great
2. Mike was awesome
3. Plenty of parking
4. Lots of beer and people brought more
5. Great learning experience

What could be done better:

1. Work benches; need one per tranny rebuild, some brought their own
2. 13m wrenches (lots of them...I think that was the size)
3. Don't forget to eat; we'd work for the entire day and forget about food. Thankfully my daughter cooked meatballs. I think we did 20 hours at least, likely more.
4. More rags and gloves

I am sure there is more, Mike?
