Scott, How could we combine the tranny rebuild with a ramble in N. Georgia ?

AA would be great if we can't schedule ACH. If you haven't seen George's 914 collection you're in for a treat.

I can't beleive I missed this thread. I am definitely interested. Maybe even for the paying part of it but I need to make a project decision regarding my transmission (ie side vs tail). If there is such a thing as a tenetive rebuild spot put me in it! I think I read the whole thread but any decision on location and final date?

The 10th is ok with me. Let's hear from the other paying participants and get this finalized. I still vote for AA because of the ready supply of parts, and the location. Anybody that wants to organize a North Georgia ramble, organize it seperately so we're not confusing the two events.

The 10th works for me. AA or ACH, ya'll decide and make sure the hosts are cool with the 10th.

The Octoberfest should be in full swing in Helen, GA about that time. Sounds like perfect timing.
The date is fine. |

Forgive me if this question is a dumb one(or has been addressed already). Assuming we are a paying "student" does it matter if we bring a side or tail shifter.

I just heard about this, and I want to be a paying customer!
I have MANY transmissions in Atlanta (of both types) in case somebody wants to buy one to rebuild.... I also have several sets of sideshift linkages. This is a fantastic idea. I look forward to meeting everyone. |

I HATE rebuilding tail shifters, but it doesnt matter what type you bring or how many. The seal kist have all the seals for both configurations. The 10th is perfect for me as the wife will be out of town doing her own thing. I just need to hear back from Jake or George. |

I was waiting to see which weekend this was going to take place in October and I guess its looking like the 10th. That being the case, I'll have to pass as a paying attendee (I really wanted to learn as I tear into one). I'll keep an eye on the thread and if it changes, I'm in.

The 10th is good for me. I guess all we need is to confirm a host. Mike, options for flights are obviously Atlanta for AA's place. I think it is about 1+ hour drive to Jake's place from the Atlanta airport, more if it is during any kind of traffic time period. If we have it at ACH, then another option may be to fly into Greenville/Spartanburg in SC. It is a little over an hour from the GSP airport to Jake's place. There used to be pretty good flights to there from Harrisburg. I am not sure if there are any more good connections, as the airlines have cut back on flights, but I thought I'd throw this out as an option to look into. If it works out that way, I can pick you up at the GSP airport. If it works out better to fly into Atlanta, I am sure we can work something out with the Atlanta people.
I am OK for either location. JoeO |
