Well, it seems that all I can do for my teener is BUY parts (not that I could DO anything, anyways).
My tub is quietly sitting in my dad's garage. I can hear it calling my name...
If any big, strong, shirtless men with a trailer want to help, my wife will appreciate it

(me too

Hi Dave,
I will help lifting the car if I can. Just let me know when. Sorry, I don't have a flatbed trailer in usable condition. If you can get someone to make it a roller, we could try out my new towbar bracket...if you want your car to be the guinea pig that is. Need to get the wheels and tires on it to see how much more flare you need anyway.

I can help ... but not for a couple of weeks.
I have the use of a trailer (a few of us share) but it's not back from the PCA Whistler event.
I'll be away the end of next week to Lake Roosevelt.
Then the trailer is off to the SCCA races at Portland September 10-12.
How about September 18?

18th sounds good. Just need a few 5 - 6 bodies to help lift.
We *might* have a trailer confirmed by then. Just need some hands.
thanks all

Hey y'all,
Saturday the 18th is still good for us. Post here if you can still help out.

I have not been able to secure use of the the shared trailer. It has not made it back to storage after being used for the Whistler Concours.
I might be able to borrow another. Let me make some calls tomorrow.

3601 Fremont is pretty easy to find. I take I-5 to the 45th Ave exit, and go west all the way to Fremont Ave, and then go south to Fremont.. the center of the universe.
Dave (Korijo) - you need people to load it in Seattle, and then unload it in Snoqualmie, right?? I ain't got no trailer or equipment or wood supports, but I'll help load and unload.
Sounds like a 6-person job. And six beers.
And one duck egg, as Groucho would say.

HE HE HE, I'll take the six beers but you can have the duck egg. beer and duck eggs make some nasty smells goin out the backside

We have a family reunion to go to at noon in Monroe, so this should work out good for me. I will have the Wife and kid with me, but I should be there in the morning to help out and if time permits I should even be able to help with the unload as well. I have the addy.

There should be a lot of wood blocks left over from the flare party. I left quite a few at Dave's.
For those who don't know, the car is in a parking garage in the alley. There is a little garage within the parking garage back in the corner where dave's car awaits.
Do we have straps to attach the car to the trailer?
Do we have a map to our destination?

Dave, please post your address in Snoqualmie, so we can print Mapquest maps showing how to get there from your Seattle address. That way if we get separated we can all still get where we're going.
This is my first time going to Snoqualmie..
