Even though we got only a few people interested in the master thread for a clinic in this area, I am confident we can pull this off. There are ample places to do this as well. So, if you can think of someone who didnt respond to the master thread (I can think of a few), send them a PM, call them, carrier pigeon. I'll be doing the same.
So far we have:
- SLKWrx (host)
- Cupomeat
- Mikespraggi


Ones I think might be interested:
- nycchef
- type11969
- Vacca Rabite
- Plas76targa
- okieflier
- Turboman808
- rmital
- essess

I know there are more, but I am drawing a blank.

How many transmissions do you want to rebuild for me?

PS - welcome to do this in my garage. Just let me know when, and you have to help me clean it up before hand. :-)

I'm in, got two tailshifts and would like to make 1 good one out of them, love to turn it in to a sideshift if I can gather the parts. I vote for South Jersey . . . Or we could actually meet in my garage in Philly but some people might be a little wary of my neighborhood. Cars would have to be out on the street! Plenty of good bars/restaurants to walk to afterwards . . .

I could offer my place too, I'm sorta with Zach on that one - it's cool seeing everyone.
Katherine and I are figuring out when we can have our 'annual' picnic - june is almost shot. Mid July or August are our next candidates. Regardless of date we could do a transmission clinic along with the "Dr Evil kids swimming lessons".

I need to get permission but I have a pretty good venue to host.26x36 garage with a mid rise lift.Big driveway too.I will have to check with the wife on when would be good.I don't know what the schedule is and she is out of town til the 26th.I am in southern Md. I could also accomodate the instructor and a few students.I work 6 days a week so Sundays are best for me,but I could arrange a Saturday if needed.

Ooh, yeah, forgot about this. Again, my garage is available but I need a showing of hands who would actually drive in to Philly. My garage is not enormous but with the bus out of the way it is probably 25 feet deep (excluding the room taken up by the 914 and the Beetle) and 12' across . . more than enough room for a bunch of people and transmissions. I only have one portable workbench so tables would have to be brought or people would have to be fine sitting on the garage floor.

Again, so for those of you interested, who wants to drive in to Philly? My neighborhood doesn't look that great but it is fine. I would not drive your concours ready 914 here though because it will be out on the street . ..

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) OK, then I'll use the "free rebuild coupon" I drew at the ECC in Charlottesville. Will be out-of-town 7/6-7/24ish.

...there's always the garage in Lyndhurst (MovieTime). Only about 10,000 square feet of room, a lift and fully equiped with the usual tools that would accomodate any shop activity.

I am down for MoviTime.

I have an idea of trying to get a group buy for 1st sliders since currently the cheapest ones are at Pelican for $435 and most of you will need them I bet.

Maybe AA can hook us up?
